Here Be Dragons?
The map said "Here be dragons" on the edge, Beyond the farthest land, in open sea. It seemed a little strange, at least to me: Where did they build their nests? I like a ledge, Some rocky outcrop on which I can sleep, And hoard my gold, and dream up riddling quips For jewel-thieves. I don't need much: just tips Of stone between me and the chilly deep. But I need dragons, too. I've been alone For centuries. I want to rut, to breed, To see my hatchlings on the wing. I need A dragoness more than I need warm stone. I searched for days, but all I found was sea. Yet still the map is right, for here be me.
