Facing Their Dragons
"You Dragons of Deceit, be gone!"
more villagers proclaim, resolved
to face the raging fire breathers
swooping through with monstrous lies.
It's different now:
increased conviction.
Enough have suffered
vicious fiction.
Battle lines
become unclear.
Can truth subdue
and persevere?
