.Me, My Dragon, And I.

[edgy lily]

Comfort has an answer
Struggle has its questions

Imagination has no manners
Fantasy, untampered~

Refines--
the person, the purposed, the prestigious
Intertwines--
the best, the beast, the bested
Together--
The man, the myth, the legend

I never could put my finger on it--
Why do I fawn over draconic concepts
heavier than a daydreaming head is

perhaps its a bond unspoken, unbroken
I crave staring at an empty bowl

Starving for a primal tempest;
A jungle juxtaposition of my own.

How human of me`
Oh, the humanity'
mermaids, hu-manatee's
believably unbelievably--

festering within a mind unendingly
through cultivated strides
The roots are bonsai's
where ideas put over integrity
flourish into trees never grown.

Me, my dragon, and I
are but origami in a paper world
drawn out forevermore.

i see this in all ur poems and i love this wordplay so much ngl, tho it felt a little like a list of words which made its meaning a little vague from rest of the poem.
the end was my fav part describing urself as origami in a paper world

[edgy lily]

Ooo I see, I aimed to capture with that list of words an image of sorts for reach line, the first one the growth of a person, as from a nobody to somebody stance

The second lines of the “best” as in the best of the prestigious person overcoming a dragon

And the man the myth the legend as in the man who overcame the myth as in the dragon and the legend as the story in the whole

ohh makes much more sense to me now thankss for describing

im tweakin sory

[edgy lily]

It’s okay, often times I try to do something abstract and fail to recognize not everyone thinks like me lol

A bit too reachy sometimes I am

[shell thistle]

i get that, many times i too in my poem completely forget about the reader, tho its fine since more or less what we write is for ourselves
