Pax Draconis

In days of old when dragons flew
amongst the clouds for all to see
They did not hide no reason to.
Men viewed them most respectfully.

They did no harm but culled the herds
of beasts too numerous to count.
No voice of protest to be heard,
the race of men of small account.

But men bred most prolifically.
Always their population grew.
The dragons lacked fertility
their numbers dwindled to a few.

Then man decided in his pride
to prove human supremacy.
It would be best if Dragons died.
The last few dragons forced to flee.

These Dragons hid themselves
away from man’s insensate cruelty
but swore that one day man would pay.
Rebuilt their numbers secretly.

The Dragons now are numerous.
Though disbelieved by modern man,
odd sightings seen as spurious.
Prepare themselves to rule again.

The U.F.O.s that some men see.
Not aliens from outer space
but Dragons flying fast and free.
New champions of the dragon race.

When they decide the time is right
they will erase the human race.
Take the revenge they feel is right
and once more take their rightful place.

As rulers of the earth and sky.
Mans handiwork will rot away.
With no man left to wonder why.
This was the price they had to pay.

The earth will be a place of peace
without mankind’s belligerence.
At last the endless wars will cease.
The dragon race have much more sense.

Though creatures will still kill to eat
As Mother Nature meant them to.
On equal terms they will compete.
When all the Dragons dreams come true.
