The Euthenating of a Shrew"The Euthanating Of A Shrew"

just brooding up all manner of his dark delight;
all sorcerous they be,

Death Via Boredom: a Dragon's DemiseDeath Via Boredom: A Dragon's Demise
Stamping forth from his lair,
Preceded by billows of smoke
The great dragon's murderous red-eyed glare
Penetrated the gloom as he wrathfully spoke.
