in the storm from the ash and smoke, the dragon comes down
seeking her approval , The koi Present their beauty,
Each scale reflecting a lifetime of choices
A colony of consciousness rejecting the simulation
Abandoning Cities of soot and sunder
Projecting through her shell, she announces:
welcome home time tourist ; warmth waiting inside.
She proclaims:
Where is the proof that you are awake?
The nose squeaks and whimpers dreaming the future sorrow of the end
