It was tough to focus

In the cloudy weather-

Thick condensation

Infused with potent drugs.

The sun shone sallow

Upon thrashing fields

Brown and decayed,

Rustling like nail-scratch

Of a drawn out lecture

On teacher's chalkboard.

And the dragon soared

Beyond confused canvas

Of a rancid pearly hue.

When it breaks through

With deafening roar,

Unleashing from its mouth

Magic floods instead

Of fairytale firestorms,

Everything is erased

Into a resurrection of grace

Again until the end of days!

"Unleashing from its mouth

Although my feet are firmly planted on the ground in my clean and sober life, I had a blast wrapping my head around your dazzling, free-flowing, innovative flight.

 

The word "again" juxtaposed will eternal references was a brilliant choice.

 

Nice tour of your psyche.
