For Then the Dragon Flies

About seven years ago

Above the mortal land

Across the Holy continents

After the volcanic erruption.

Against the walls of the temple

Around where the lions den

At midnight it begins

Before the moon comes up.

Behind the backs of mortal men

Below the deepest ocean

Beside the ice-capped mountains

(Besides you and me).

Between two worlds it lies

Beyond your wildest dreams

By means of wings it flies

Down to mortal dreams.

During the night it goes

Except for certain nights

For then it is reborn

For then the dragon flies.
