#100MonstrousPoems 49: Wyvern

I’m like a dragon, but I’m not.
I’m like a bird but haven’t got
The feathers that you might expect:
I’m claws and wings and scales and neck.
And if you know your heraldry
Then, by extension, you know me.
On crests and flags you’ve seen me writhin’,
Nice to meet you, I’m a wyvern.
