Dragons Breath

Within the cankerous catacombs of the slaving still Where torrential tears fall like rumbling rain As the decomposed dust gets its felonious fill And sanctioned sorrows receive their parasitic pain Where dichotomous dreams destroy the nightly nest And slumberous souls reminisce their restless rest As the Dragon turns to breathe its bereaving breath For all that abandonedly await for its defunctive death. July.20.2016 Two Stanzas - Two Only - Poetry Contest By Broken Wings rhyming scheme abab ccdd

I chose this one to comment upon because of the dragon theme. Great rhyming and use of double-lettered words together. I wish you well in the contest, dear one.
