Crocosmia

Sounds like a lizard or a mini dragon

you would have as a pet...

scaly skin, dry breath

and beady eyes,

count slowly to ten

and the eyes open,

count slowly to ten

and the eyes close..

moving from one place to another,

half a life time away..

your minute is his hour..

Little Lucifer

in his glass enclosed house,

decorated with bleached wood,

sand and a small desert plant.

Nope. Not a lizard,
but a brilliant flower.
