I read this and it reminded me of all the lyrics and poetry I wrote when young

Prophetess and Arcane

Prophetess of New Deva fame
went with Arcane when he came
together they went to earth
and filled themselves with a deeper mirth
Then they traveled both space and time
and healed themselves two worlds in time.

What is a dragon?

A dragon in europe was a terrible thing mostly that burned down your grass or thatched houses.

But in Asia it became a symbol of power which could be either good or bad but usually both. 

So, a dragon often was the symbol of royalty. IN Bhutan many are the Dragon Kagyu and are Tibetan Buddhists.

When I did my vision quest of no water and food for 96 hours (4 days and nights) one of my visions (after about 2 days of no water or food) was of becoming a Dragon that was bigger than almost any house but also that breathed Golden Fire and the skin of the Dragon was also Gold.

This eventually led me to study Tibetan Buddhism with several Tibetan Lamas in California, Oregon, Nepal and India including the Kalachakra Tantra with the Dalai Lama and 500,000 others in Bodhgaya India in December 1985.

I tried about 25 years ago to write Haiku and some of my Haiku was okay. In Haiku you are trying to reduce what you are trying to say to very very few words and you want these words to convey a lot. So, you have to usually think some about what you want to say and how to reduce it to very few words.

Writing Haiku I think is a good exercise for anyone who wants to be a writer because it causes you to refine what you want to say. It's a kind of discipline in how to say much more in many less words. 

This can also be useful in talking to people to groups or individuals so you are more specific about what actually needs to be said to people regarding almost anything you need to say to them.

Think about how effective and useful different ways of saying things might be in any situation.

This is helpful in effective communication throughout your lives.
