9. The Dragon of Death
The Kraken
Below the thunders of the
upper deep;
Far, far beneath in the
abysmal sea,
His ancient, dreamless,
uninvaded sleep
The Kraken sleepeth:
faintest sunlights flee
About his shadowy sides:
above him swell
Huge sponges of
millennial growth and
height;
And far away into the
sickly light,
From many a wondrous
grot and secret cell
Unnumbered and
enormous polypi
Winnow with giant arms
the slumbering green.
There hath he lain for
ages and will lie
Battening upon huge sea-
worms in his sleep,
Until the latter fire shall
heat the deep;
Then once by man and
angels to be seen,
In roaring he shall rise and
on the surface die.
Alfred, Lord Tennyson
(1809-1892)
In a faraway, faraway forest
Lies a treasure of infinite worth.
But guarding it closely forever
Looms a being as old as the
earth.
Its body’s as big as a boulder,
And armored with shimmering
scales.
Even the mountain tops tremble
when
It thrashes it’s seven great tails.
Its eyes tell a story of terror,
They gleam with an angry red
flame
As it timelessly watches its
riches.
And the Dragon of Death is it’s
name.
Its teeth are far sharper than
daggers.
It can tear hardest metal to
shreds.

13. Dragon versus Kraken
• Dragon is more
detailed
• Dragon has killed and
will kill to protect its
cache
• Lots of similes
• Strong rhyme pattern
• Lots of equal stanzas
• Upbeat, like a fable
• Kraken is less
descriptive of creature,
more of surrounding
sea
• Kraken dies when it
reaches the surface
• It sleeps for a long time
• One stanza; uses
enjambment but no
rhythm/rhyme pattern
• More serious tone
