Thief
in the night
I
sought through
Profanity
and discord
To
rob that dragon
Of
his hoard
This
two handled cup
Is
mine
And
I’ll rightfully say
He
may be Smaug
But
I still had my way

Oo awesome! I need to read the Hobbit again.
ReplyDeletehaha you have to be careful when you are bearding the dragon....

ReplyDeleteThere is nothing quite
like a pissed off old dragon
who's just learned of you,
young thief. That old snake
has life to spare chasing you
and it amuses him
to think up payback.
You better get it ready
because there's no way
out of this hot spot
taking dragon's gold off him
has fired just for you.
Dare I admit this? I had to google Smaug :)! My mom loved the hobbit. Her favorite book. I have never been able to get into it, though I have tried. I know, I know. I should read it :).
ReplyDeleteI thought this was an analogy for other battles, as it could be:
I sought through
Profanity and discord
To rob that dragon
Of his hoard
Off to see The Hobbit and I'm not being Smaug about that either . . . thanks for a great wake-up poetry today.
ReplyDeleteI'm spinning off at "two handled cup". It is working its way through my brain into something important. (i think)
ReplyDeleteThanks for the follow. :)
