Gathering the dust underneath means you are submitting! <br />To who do you submit your will? <br />My master forbade the dragon to utter darkness <br />And submerge in it at the same time. <br />For Hell was a place for transgressors, <br />Reminding us of the Dragon of Despair. <br />Dust fell from high shelves and you submitted <br />To the sage of learning and craft: <br />“Your free will is a heart, <br />In it is your calibre called living.” <br />So live as long as song, and devise the words <br />To commit the deeds that betray a dragon.<br /><br />Naveed Akram<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/gathering-dragons/
