The Dragon

by tempeste

His legions call him The Dragon
one of a kind in his art
In competitions he never took part
yet for most he's still the champion


His movements, graceful as a soaring flacon
Strength, speed and mind set him apart
His legions call him The Dragon
one of a kind in his art


His skills made him a lethal weapon
To Westerners he taught the secrets of his art
Chinatown elders were against him from the very start
Man of knowledge and wisdom he became a global icon.
His legions call him The Dragon.
