Eons and eons ago, Offspring the Second had a book of poetry about insects:  Insectlopedia. It was a favorite.
-----

I am the dragon,
The demon of skies.
Behold my bold 
Enormous eyes.
I sweep
     I swoop
          I terrorize.
For lunch I munch
On flies and bees.
Mosquitoes with
My feet I seize.
I am the dragon:
Down on your knees!
