In Micayla's Kingdom



In Micayla's kingdom,
The ladies sat soft on cool green grass
Ringed safe in creamed concrete.
Toasted warm,quiet kissed and blessed,
Until dragons came wanting them
Barbequed for lunch.
Superheroes in beach towel capes
Tossed pine cone grenades
At their smoking in the moat.
It was an explosive path to knighthood
Bestowed by princesses wearing inexpensive
lip gloss smiles and cigar band rings.
"Rise now knights,Come and sit beside us!
Let us warm our feet above the boiling moat.
The dragon parts are cooling
Soon they're good to eat.
With popsicles bleeding nectars
Over scraped and battered knuckles".
Let us lick and contemplate
Let's savor dragon meat.
