Drakos
A thousand lives in a slitted blink,
then a slow,
fixed
stare.
Cosmic scatters shine
in the great eye,
deepest at dusk.
Armored muscles shift
in their tectonic rumblings
and iron talons flex.
A hot rush of wings presses
shadow grasses down.
In its wake, solemn silence vows
its return.

Ahhh, Atakti, luv :-* ~
How you've captured the great creature in so few, well-chosen words! :-*
I've always had a particular partiality to these particular mythological dynamos.
You've done them a right justice here in poesy, luv. :-*

something deep and expansive, yet palpable and heart racing in your dragon universe with nebula eyes and deep ore claws, the conjuring in these words gives story to the magic of poetry, not sure why really, but this gem kinda blows me away, very cool
