At
Sunset
I watch
a sky dragon
crawl across the twilight
twisting his head from side to side
keeping
an eye
above a world
that waits for the coming
clouds that follow his fiery breath
See him
change hues
from pink to orange
then purple and crimson
feet stretching as he slides a path
farther
along
the blue evening
where he tries to disguise
himself between the slanted hills
and sleep
