Re: Beowoulf bares all to the sun


Last year I built shade structures around my pumpkins
to keep them in the dark.  

Beowoulf would have none of this in his roost so near
the dragon's keep.  So his shield is a blanket. Thus
he wards off the fiery breath of the sun but can still
feel it's warmth.  At night, he huddles tight within
it's folds to combat the chill and dew.

When I rise in the morning to take his picture, he
throws his wrap aside and bares his buff bottom to the
camera.  He is not ashamed.

Thus are the ways of Beowoulf, slayer of dragons,
hunter of dreams.
