“A Dragon Has Just
Flown Over the Treetops…”
“We must all show great constancy.”
-C. S. Lewis, Voyage of the Dawn Treader
Dragons! They seem to land among us daily
Blotting out all happiness, all innocent joys
In appearance and demeanor ugly and scaly,
Suppressing silence through foul foolish noise
Dragons! They don’t like anything about who we are
Our words, our works, our walks, our dreams, our tunes,
Our happy memories of a long-ago star
Our lazy moments in barefoot afternoons
Dragons! They want to crush us in the end
But we’ve read the story – we always win
