Keep a dragon's egg
in your pocket long enough,
pulling it out to marvel,
turning it over
in your sweaty little palms,
shaking it at the folks
who stir you from
the laziness of your
inherited perch of status quo,
and sooner or later
you'll be the unwitting
(Or is it dim-witted?)
owner of an uncontrollable,
fire-breathing maniac.
It's getting hot up in here!
