Dragon King Poem by maria goodison

Dragon King



He has sleep so long and does not wake when I
call.
Did they know to keep the dragon King asleep would be
there undoing.
To bind him with spells and iron change did they think he would
not brake free.
yes I claim I did help for my King did not awake when his queen
called his name.
All the demons of the past play in his eyes, and his wings lift and stretch
as his hart thumps his blood around his veins.
