Real Dragons




They’re dragons all the time
Baker told me
They just look like horses
When the sun’s out

I paid him for an albino
How much?
Let’s just say
Five times what you’d pay for a good horse

What a surprise is would be for Mary
And the perfect crime
What could be found?
Maybe her Rolex

I had no castle or moat
But a good strong cage
I know about cages
Plenty

I didn’t feed the beast
For two days
My pet
My rules

I visited the white dragon
At bed time
He snorted
I opened the cage and stepped inside
