Serpentine Dragon

They clipped the wings
Of the serpentine dragon
They took away its fire and steam
And replaced it with a plug
No one heard the screams
As they turned it into steal
As they closed its mouth
And put it on wheels
The serpentine dragon
clipped wings, wired jaw
follows the path they made
jolts and bumps and clanks

They clipped the wings
Of the serpentine dragon
So now it can no longer fly
They filled it with electric current
And replaced eyes with lights
No one now remembers
The sounds it once made
As scurrying we enter the belly
And travel on the path they made
Clipped wings, wired jaw
Steel sided, track bound
Poor serpentine dragon
