Left by the Hun caravans-guards or Mongol Invaders,
In the fourteenth century,
It was a row of half a dozen bent and scattered,
Heaps of Great Worm bones on a slope.
And a single wing flapped and stretched in the wind,
It gave hope that the beast would fly,
until evening fell and the moon rose over the hills.
