The Bard and The DragonA Poem by Jake E. SampsonThe Bard and The Dragon Such travels, that
natural waste Through beauty clear
and fluid. Don’t fret or fumble,
as the mother She is tending to it. Bestowed. Do tell to
whom for the tulip’s bell. As stone stands fast
and silt does sift, the current is part Through land, the
rift. Speak, fair bard,
your time draws near clouded and thick, for all is well Behind fell brush. The moments too, dare
to see Withstand for long
the persistent drops. I write for mercy and
comfort. The distant cries of
warriors and patrons, as long As the dragon’s game.
The air " is thick,
dirt soil and filth Labors god’s toil. Too long are we that
bide and worry. Love seemingly clear,
alas do harm Quiet, like the
breaths of the willow, does reach thee. The man’s tender
ears, ‘who is that?’ he calls Too frightened to see
near. A picnic of uncial
proportion to sate the bard’s fair hunger His crime too small
for law and plunder. Doth tree does bard
now sit? Awaited, the sounds
of rustle and breeze Of eons past and
present, as future Told no more, my view " the bard That rendered his
crescent. As slow as growth, as
large as earth. In all that shines
from him, the calls the song that fear A laugh, that’s all,
does bard sit and call. Inquiring to change
that auspicious peak, For cross and sword
is feeble a weapon. Mind does thwart him
still, Free form and still
my beauty, my fluid carry silt, stone and dream. I sit for you now,
the bard my ego And listen and little
to hand to you. © 2013 Jake E. Sampson |
