The Paper Dragon

It lives in water
Made with paper
It hides in darkness
In the depths
It’s hard to make
Lots of bumps
It can’t be faked
Art from Japan,
Tens of folds,
Possibly over a hundred
As fragile as silence
Thick as an elephant’s leg
Lines everywhere,
Over time it was made
It flies in burning cold water
It’s like a snake
But with wings,
It also has fins
It lives in water.
