It Tis' in Flight!
The underbelly was Maroon Fire---
The Overscales Magenta---
The mane from tip to snout was Ultra-Violet---
The claws a Marbled, Tan.
The Ox and the Ass both feared it's flight----
By dark of day or Bright of night---
It's Amber eyes with pupils not---
Both glowed with malice and Single thought.
Extended wings Like Bats so large---
With tail of length to fit the sight---
Razored teeth of Mother of Pearl---
The tips of which glowed a bluish light!
" To Arms! To Arms! It tis' in flight! "---
The claxons roared with Torches alight!---
This Darkest of Day's!---
This Brightest of Nights!
