Draconis Mortis?

Oh father dear, the truth is quite clear, 

It’s a Mythical creature from a bygone year. 

Riden by it’s deepest fear,

Death from a warrior’s spear, 

As the vacant eye sheds a solitary tear. 

But child, I’m sure your concern is most sincere, 

While this verse reeks of "ears", 

Never fail to check the _____!

A Scatterling too incredible for serious verse.
