Lonely dragon sits,
ringed by cold steel artifice,
in our modern world.

You opened this can of worms.
I love bad haiku.

This one isn't mine
It's a poem written by
One of my children.

Today, haiku reads
backwards yet, and yet backwards
reads haiku today.

Okay, that's clever!

The wind just whispers,
as if afraid to reveal
where it's been today.

endless crash of endless seas,

Hold your pen steady,
then let it flow forth freely,
capturing your dreams.

Legion World is great.
I should be here more often.
I will try to be.


The only character in all of literature who has been described as "badnass" while using the phrase "vile miscreant."
