the second of the Wales poems


I never saw dragons

I never saw dragons
as full-fledged intentions
flying on flags or beer-mats
raucously scaled and fierce
breaking red fire
over bones and silly bards
hiding with their poetry
where lush grain
turns into liquid gold
and dead fish sizzles
in abandoned frying pans
early at light's knife edge

the one still moves
small words around
in search of a solace
an aftermath
to roll like bright thunder
beneath the roaring sun
where serendipity and swans
tell the silent tales of trees
at the bottom of Spring Hill
where water is only water
teasing life with its dragon tense

Quite brilliant. Dragons in the east and west. Will we ever be free of myths :)
