Red (DRAGON)

Red, the Eastern fire

Of the mighty dragon --

The color in his eyes

Of hope and promise.

 

Red, the Western death’s

Bloodbath of sin --

In monster’s claws

A tale of greed and pain.

 

Red, the blooming flowers

Of love, and thorns of hate,

Ribbons hung from mystery,

Of life and death the same.
