Love is a Dragon

This is a work of poetry intended for a mature audience. All characters are over 18. This is a collection of poems about hope, love, despair and joy. And the occasional dragon. The Art of Losing arguing with a beautiful girl is like gambling against a stacked deck the question isn't whether you'll lose but with how much grace Irrational Curves and Meaningless Straights Cthulhu may be cruel and evil monstrous and soul consuming but that doesn’t mean he can’t have poker night inviting Dagon and Nyarlathotep Azaroth and the gang to a card table formed by flattening a mountain with his fist and the stakes are high souls and planets the occasional galaxy the snacks are strange beholders dipped in buffalo sauce but when it comes to gambling with Cthulhu the worst part isn't that he's stacked the deck but that non-Euclidean geometries make straights meaningless For Rachel if the darkness is depression and despair you are the dawn lifting the edge of night blunting it's power radiant and unstinting
