DRAGON
Lost in your head again
weaving your own heroes tale
waiting for the winner’s laurel
there is no race here
no challenge to win
this is life
we all work
we all create
and there are no banquets
and acceptance speeches
for making a home
or feeding your family
this is life
the award
is the company you keep
people who mirror back
what you send their way
light or dark
we chose
every day
to do it the
easy way
or the hard way
and we find
at the end of our journey-
the dragon we slew
to win the final crown
was the dragon in the mirror
