Within the Dragon’s Tooth

by Dave Draper  ©  1970-78118 words

I face the sun with anti-glare
I trace the wizard to his lair
He hides in regions in between
Where other eyes have never seen
Beyond the spectrum of known truth
Deep within the dragon’s tooth

I disappear, somehow I’m gone
Gone from where this star once shone
in time too distant to explain
Unparalleled where I remain
Beyond the spectrum of known truth
Deep within the dragon’s tooth

The wizard with his crystal ball
Sees me enter the mighty hall
I turn sideways to evade
And find myself in some huge dark cave
Where I taste the sulphur of some strange youth
Deep within the dragon’s tooth
