I've returned to my past body of works and have attempted to improve upon a freeform blurby thing I wrote. This has more form that its predesessor, and I think I'll keep working on it as it seems to be my best composition.



We used to conjure dragons.
Entities of imagination,
They fall from the sky as
passengers in a yellow bucket.

A system of pulleys lends to us,
for this affair, their own magic
with the help of a driveway basketball hoop.

The cacophonous roar as villagers flee
One mage stands, courageous, and cries,
"Hark! A Dragon!"
His words see for those who flee.

This is a scene to be seen
but I do not hold it against you
if you cannot.

The magic herein belongs to my childhood
like that of four British schoolchildren
belongs to their reluctant creator,
alone.
