Aww... It’s a cute baby dragon. It likes to chase fish in shallow water.

And look! It has grown wings! It must be close to maturing.

Young dragons are relatively defenseless. They are born with relatively soft scales, which are shed and replaced with harder ones as the hatchling matures. Once a hatchling’s wings grow in, it typically marks the beginning of maturation. At this point they are often capable of hunting on their own and are usually left alone by their mother.

User Description

Micro-poetry on Twitter believes that nothing exists if it is "more than 140 characters long". What this entails is a bit confusing, especially given that most dragons (certainly in her area, where writing is pictographical; dragons not having a phoneme) do not use writing the way he counts it. He likes writing tiny snips of (usually free) verse which are too short to complete a thought. Sometimes he tries writing a series of micro-poems, and these occasionally lead somewhere, but are rarely cohesive enough. He is a big fan of Ha1K0's haikus, and like his sister he is obsessed with the drake's gibberish syllabic verse. He respects it for what it is and the even more impressive feat of the drake composing verse at all.

He wrote the following micro-poem about his glaucus friend:

"A little blue master

Divine though simplicity

Honours tiny verse."

Actually following a form is rare for Micro-poetry, but he felt it was required to honour his favorite writer.
