Lewis, Voyage of the Dawn Treader Dragons! They seem to land among us daily Blotting out all happiness, all innocent joys In appearance and demeanor ugly and scaly, Suppressing silence through foul foolish noise Dragons! They don’t like anything about who we are Our words, our works, our walks, our dreams, our tunes, Our happy memories of a long-ago star Our lazy moments in barefoot afternoons Dragons! They want to crush us in the end But we’ve read the story – we always win
