Adi's Draft of "Dragons"

Dragons

I stare down
toward the bottom
from the top of the sandy hill.

I jump off the hill
with the wind pressing against my face.

I begin screaming,
at the top of my lungs.

The straps are tight against my body,
I feel like I’m in an elevator
falling down, and down, and down,
and it never stops.

My feet barely touching the water,
But when I stop
I hit the grass.

At the bottom I laugh
sitting on the grass,
feeling like a dragon
flying back up.
