the dragon from io, Saturnalia! by randytaylor69

he waits in the eaves
for the seed to come forth
sends out secret police
opponents ruled by force

do you dance with the dragon
or give him what he wants
do you dance with the dragon
in the corridors he haunts

a claw drawn across
insides glow pink
lips slowly defrost
as the tongue sips a drink

do you dance with the dragon
he'll take what he wants
when you dance with the dragon
he becomes your consort

the seven heads lift
heptad of diadems glint
upward, he drifts
leaving no footprint

the earth opens up and
swallows the river
by his instruments and imps
he leaves not a sliver
