Haiku poems about dragons, by Jess of Dragonsinn.
I’ll try to write new ones once this website transfer is over (big project!!).
DRAGON HAIKU SET #1 (2007)
1. Chemical Brothers
Of the same flesh and
blood. Immortality
is their Destiny.
2. Superlative
The day I flew with
The dragon was the day I
Became Excellence.
3. White Claw
A pint of dragon’s
blood and a claw – if you can
get them: Youth is Yours.
4. Here We Go
Dive from a hundred
Feet, from heaven to the ground
in Less than Zero.
5. How Does It Feel?
To be perceived to
Not exist, by humans that
Must at least taste good…
6. Tea With The Black Dragon
Is the answer in
the tea leaves, or the eyes of
Your draconic host?
7. The Dragon as Venus
The cool, seductive
Icy gaze belies the heart’s
Ferocious fire.
8. The Tattooed Girl
Kimono slipping
off her white shoulders to bare
her dragon backpiece.
9. -Love-
Physical distance
Is nothing a wide wingspan
Couldn’t overcome.
10. The End of the Millenium
The first crack appears,
He will soon have his first breath
Of shocking fresh air.
DRAGON HAIKU SET #2 (2008)
Note: Deep Purple and NEW ORDER influenced!!
1. Green Dragon:
Guarding your forests,
Waiting, observing, taking
Down lurking hunters.
2. Mist Dragon
Seeing all, drifting
Unseen, silent as air – she
Knows the world’s secrets.
3. Fireball
Unless you want to
Be snuffed out like a candle
flame – don’t anger him.
4. The Midgard Serpent
Devours itself,
In an eternal cycle
Of self-renewal.
5. Courtesan
Oh, she’ll have her way
With you, have you for dinner,
Then spit your bones out.
6. Smoke on the Water
A thin trail of grey
Smoke lingers above the lake,
As he star-gazes.
7. Crystal
Scales glistening like
Crystal; multi-shaded hues
Like a prism beam.
8. YinYang
A purple scent that’s
Made of 2 parts heart’s blood, and
2 parts dragon’s blood.
9. Regret
She has no regrets
Living her life of combat,
Valor, and hoarding.
10. Viking Longship
From yonder o’er
The high seas, fast encroaching:
Here Come The Dragons.
