Dragon Eyes

by PS   Mar 21, 2006


Dragon eyes that change in color like leaves in autumn
look up and peer at the clouds of anger
as thunder is sounding
tearing apart the threads of control.
Dragon eyes see coal blackness
as they shut the door on love.
Dragon of dragon eyes sees nothing
as raindrops from below sear his face,
that colorless body turning,
reflecting a painting left in the rain.
Colors of happiness--
yellow, green, red--running away
into utter black puddles of despair.
The bell of lies resounds in his head.
Dragon eyes see the threshold to nowhere
offering a gateway to nothing.
They crinkle in false glee
as they see one who glimpses nothing but joy
bound like a puppy into the unknown world of fibs where everything is made up and nothing is true,
where the hounds are hidden behind a wall of stone.
Dragon eyes deceive with the face of happiness.
Dragon eyes that change in color like the leaves in autumn,
before the sky falls.
