UGLY Kids ran and shrieked ;
the air filled with
high pitched squeals
around a 10 foot lizard:
scale covered,
mouth agape,
tongue testing
salt sea air,
a fixed stony stare.
Man approached,
straddled and stroked
its 3 foot snout,
spread a sheet
to collect
odd cents
or Euros,
tokens to sand
sculpted art. The following morning
a house brick
caved its head,
trainer prints kicked
away its tail.
A 10 foot ,
scale covered,
bug eyed
fucking dragon......
too beautiful for
this world.
