From The Womb Of Fire, Hushed Smoothness Of Planetary Flow (11) Poem by Captain Cur

Dragon wings, an ingenious device scaled
With fibrous muscle woven through melded bone;
Spanning long and wide catapulting air,
Layered with knitted shields resembling stone
Pumping parallel with a whirring drone.
Harnessing currents with marvelous ease
Their tactical machinations laid bare
Reattaching to the wiles of a breeze
In incredulous flight crossing a fearsome sea.

Unrivaled in land and aerial combat
Amassing power from light's kindling beams,
Searching and seeking in wide arching paths
Diving in maddening wind funneled streams.
Pushing the limits of terrestrial speed
With the fine manner elegance bestows
Braving the day sky to that sky unseen
In hushed smoothness of planetary flow
Viewing earth from beyond dusk's tranquil glow!
