Here are a few additional journeys your humble Dragonmaster hath recently made, be they online, in person, or wherever. These further adventures will be updated when my whims demand thus. Pray, relax, find a simple comfy chair --- and enjoy!
"The Merlin of Manhattan" by Alison Taylor
Where do you look for a Wizard? This is not the Yellow Brick Road to Oz! Manhattan's underground tube station Is not your mind's imagination, Because commuters, tourists, travellers and such like that, Going about their daily routine, Unaware of the man in the tall pointed hat Who has broken up their monotonous scene. The Goblins, the Faeries, the Mystical Measures, A vocation belonging only to the able, Drawn away from the office and clerical table Into spells and conjuring and mythical tales, Master Blackwolf unfolds in fantasy scales. Mediaeval magycke in Manhattan today, Captivation of Imagination in such a way Can only be brought into the front of the mind's eye, If the allowance of belief is permitted to apply, Trudging around New York's streets and modern-day living, Is this Emblem of Fantasy, Dream-maker in the giving!"
"Outside the Bubble" by Ray Irving
A world distorted as a whole, Living there inside your bowl.
Don't bother me with your codes and rules, for I live out here, amongst the fools!
Aye, fools! You may think of me and mine as dressing up strange all the time.
But stop and think: How's your life going? I may be odd, but inside, I'm glowing.
Rolled-up paper, catch the train, get home late, then back again.
Toiling your way to make a living; my way's easier, for I'm just giving!
Giving Fun and Hope to all you slaves, bringing light to all your days,
My wand is hot with wishes true; and my spells are meant to help you.
So, dear friends in this dark, grey world: Within thy bubble, 'tis quite absurd!
Renounce thy ways of bitter stress! Pop that bubble! Clear up this mess!
Enjoy thy life, without a care! Stay at home and save thy fare!
Become a King or a Queen, or a Wizard, too --- yes, that is my advice to you.
Why, look at Ray Irving! He's now a King; Whilst Master Blackwolf does his thing!
Are these two men really fools? Maybe they've rediscovered Life's tools ---
Tools that repair broken ways into ever-smiling happy days!
It may be so there's too much trouble trying to escape from your own bubble.
Without a plan, ye may never stop. So prick thyself, and make it POP!
