The Whispering Wings
Above the brick-layered buildings
And affront the crimson sky
Is a dragon with his breath a wielding
A battle with Hellboy in which he'll die
'Braam', 'Krunch', 'Boom' and 'Wup'
are noisies from the fiery battle
though quiet is the whispers
beneath the dragon's wing-shadows
Hellboy takes a dagger
across the lizards skin
and out of the sky she falls
but this will not be his win
She takes the form of the blood queen
and rips out Hellboy's heart, to Hell he shall travel
