Poem: the dragon and the blue turtle

By Jack Brummet

1
The dragon stays below the surface
Because the time to act is not now
Water pours down from heaven and fire rises up

2
From the center of the earth
Earth sucks in lightning to electrify itself
Like Dr. Frankenstein's monster

3
Let the blue turtle go
Train your eyes
Like a bobcat

4
Leave the knife beneath your cloak
Let things pass

Because all things must pass

5
Awareness of danger
Brings good fortune

As you cross the cold cold sea.
