the edge of the earth

The Edge of the Earth

The edge
of the
earth is
still there.

 

You can
still step
off into
a world of
sea dragons
& vultures.

 

It’s a
bad place
to show
up ill-prepared,
without a
sword a
brave heart &
some armor.

 

People disappear
off the
edge of
the earth
by the
thousands.

 

Winged creatures
breathing fire
snap them
up like bugs.

 

No one ever returns.
