I did a reading where I performed the story I had memorized - in costume. Mango Fire, about a young dragon who is bullied, beaten and killed and, as a spirit, she warns... "So now, when you feel eyes watching you, and ain't no eyes to see, it could be me. If you belly trembling, Ah nah calling for flight or fight, but minding you to mind you claws, try make you breath mango sweet, even as you fire hot. If not, you gon learn, is a why behind every 'what happen' and is not you and you alone who gon feel me heat."
