The Fire (Marked To Be a Human Dragon Part Ii)

New sedan tracked into the wet puddle on the sharp bend Grasping for breath the engine choked to die splattering Wheels crunched jerking to stop by the grassy pavement Hitting the ignition time and again to revive the stalled car; Lonely the road snaked up the mountain side into the mist. On the horizon the sun fought back the night as it drowned Braving the cold I stepped out adjusting my overcoat collars As the winds howled to click the door close with a soft ease; For the past hour driving madly I had not seen a single soul Hoping to find a shelter for the night I was forced to move on Walking fast I just crossed the hill edge to see a fire glowing High up on the ledge as the trees danced to its magical blaze; A half moon cast its silvery light on the barren mountain path Stepping into its unevenness I stirred slowly climbing upward Captivated thus I felt her move under the dragon etched skins Highlighting my fear that the dream was bursting into my life; ‘Who goes there’ awakened me to the reality of seeking a roof. An old man with a white long beard struggled to hold the stick ‘Come by the fire I grow old as the prophecy brings you here, Take her to be your mate for she longs to meet her chosen one.’ Suddenly he grows wings and in a flash flies into the dark sky Amazed I bite my left knuckles to cry out in the dreamy trance Soft giggles of laughter vanish into a silence as the fire crackles. Within shadows behind the flames bushes grow along the cavity. In stillness the night grows warm as snow flakes begin their fall Smothering the fire as embers smoke to grow cold covered white, Pushing my self against the cleft, camouflage gives away the cave I move into the dark labyrinth each step brightening the light glow. Snuggling with in soft white furs I gaze struck by the blue eyed girl Lips move the silence, as I obey her command ready to ignite desire Under the skin my dragon etch goes crazy as I sit by her stone bed Time stops, she touches her lips to mine exploding a burning need. Aflame I burst in uncontrolled ruptures of ecstasy to fire the mind. Belly ablaze as the body is ransomed to slavers infinite dragon fire.
