What do you think this poem means?

The Dragon of truth sleeping





See him on the land of men





See him on the skies of truth





Only sky will cry over the land





Only the Dragon is sleeping above every hand





His eyes full of oceans





His ankles kissing the chains





His tongue is within the cages





Spears of death in his skin





A shining star on his eye





Crying out loud for the sky





Chain was not ashamed of himself?





But feared the light of true self!





Who were raised day by day!





Freedom, yelling tongue in the cage





but no one hears him, only the pages

What do you think this poem means?
I think it talks about a nation who could not recognize his power but they others can see him and it's really a great poem pleas tell us the author.

It seems a bit disjointed... the extended metaphor gets jumbled and i dont think its done well... is it by a published poet... a good one??





Its full of trigger words that make it jerky and emotional but in terms of form, the rhymes seem forced, dragon of truth in skies for truth seems dumb.. ankles kissing chains is a silly image... i cant take it seriously and the meter most lines are prose at best... the cliches are hitting me over the head...





It doesnt mean anything... its trying too hard to be profound.. and to be a poem for that matter... it screems l"ook at me im a poem!!"





OH Noooooo Please tell me this isnt a poet i respect... :(
