Dedicated primarily to Dedicated secondarily to E. Just because he's cool like that.

Fiery fingers of flame reach around,

Trying, though futile, to strengthen its grasp.

The flames devour and carnage abounds,

Death spewing forth from the maw of this Asp.

How great is the Wyrm, devouring Wyrm!

How vast, how widespread destruction bestowed!

How easy consumed a foundation firm,

Vicious devastation to each abode!

The conquering Serpent who flies at night,

With batlike wingspread of over a score,

Greedily eats up all things in his sight;

He is the thing that good people abhor.

He would drink blood from chalice or flagon;

Devil’s within this hideous dragon.

I am not a poem person, as you well know, but the lure of the First Comment didst ensnare my simple and easily amused mind.

This poem was certainly not bad, and I enjoyed your use of "Wyrm" rather than "dragon." Beyond that, I reach my wit's end, for it is simply and undeniably... a poem.

Nice intro.

And now, I dance. *dances*

:-) Camilla 'Motone' Whitney replies: "Tsk tsk. So greedy for first comments, you would subject yourself to the horror of reading a poem. Well, thanks. ^_^ Dance Muffin Dance!"

:-) Camilla 'Motone' Whitney replies: "I'd actually like to scope out your site first, if you don't mind. What's the url?"

Hehe, not bad, not bad. Though, suiting the poem's theme and feel, a more intense rhythm would do wonders.

:-) Camilla 'Motone' Whitney replies: "Too bad I really suck at meter, because otherwise, I'd give that a try."
