Chimera

CHIMERA Chimera in the modern world, you’ll find Is an illusion or fabrication of the mind In architecture, a beast carved in stone But if seen, it is best to leave them alone Or an organism with two different DNAs With eggs fertilised in two different ways In contrast to the myths in ancient Greek Where it’s a scary monster that you seek With the head of a lion, and a serpent tail A fire-breathing dragon, and it’s female Some say that a goat grows on its back But thought dangerous, as it will attack It means all that is grotesque or illusory When a fight to the death is compulsory
