THIS IS NOT A DRAGON


I feel like a dragon. Breathing fire every time I open my mouth.

You can try and get inside my head but you will be lost within the corridors of all the places I have burnt down.  It all looks the same now.  Charred and ashy  wallpaper.  Doors are hanging on by one nail on the hinges.

I feel like a dragon.  Angry and misunderstood.  Even if I let you get close up,  It’s useless.  You will try to tame the wild fire spreading through my body.  You will call me a monster when I try to calm down.

So I will let you marvel in spectacular. I will let you say all the nice words. And the ugly ones too.
