Phoenix Breaths

Have you seen, with gifted sight The bottom line of pits Made stand and smiled On platforms stage Have you danced a tango with a cactus And bowed down in appreciation While still unplugging,   What was left  behind In piercing thorns on skins Do not speak bad of the dragon I have come to appreciate it's breath In dens he owned, I sat in; a lodger Trick or treat, is from what side Side of the coin the toss, gravitates So the lucky coin still has a side Unseen until show of hands Like everything else, in matter Do not speak bad, Of the dragon's breath It is rude to do so.
