WIP: Graduate's Proof / Two Suns

[Dronee]

I'm not sure how to keep the dragon without making it look awkward... Hmm... Anyway, here it is.

And dreams of old yet to yield
Sought they my fall yet I stand unkneeled
Still barred my way by a single lock
Whose key is wrought from a will of steel

Through troubling trials and hurt unearned
An undimmed fire, a passion burns
Through mockers' mock and insults' sear
Stand fast unfazed, my proof draws near

That which I've yearned and failures unlearned
The time draws nigh, to learn to fly
So beware ye mockers, an answer clear
And behold the risen, the dragon awakened

Thanks for sharing!

Hey thanks... but hmmm... it's still incomplete. The dragon looks awkward with only half the face. I wanted to do it with perspective, but I'm not good enough to visualize it. Any ideas?

Unfortunately you've reminded me of some Yngwie-esque song lyrics I wrote years ago, called "Dragon's Eyes." The quality was right up there with Yngwie's lyrics, too.

Fortunately, your work in progress is better than that. Though I don't know what to tell you about the dragon's face.

Haha... why unfortunate? He seems like a good musician.

It's not his musical ability, but his lyrics that made me choose "unfortunate" as the operative word.

Nah... you're putting yourself down man. I've read some of your poetry and think that they're all very well done.

Hmm.... Apparently it's not in either of the notebooks by my computer. Maybe it's in that notebook that's in my bedroom. If I find it, I'll post it to prove that in this one instance, I'm not just being hard on myself.

If I remember right, there's a bit about a swinging tail. Maybe even some fire breathing, too. I really hope it's in that other notebook. If it's not in there, I don't know where else it would be.

Any suggestions would be welcome. I'm a beginner trying to learn some art so that the paintings look somewhat like they're meant to be.
