Bull-frogs in local pubs

Where are my childhood heroes?
Tall giants all,
Bull-frogs in local pubs, 
Bards who sang
Adventure and heroism
From far-out lands,
On sandy beaches drew
Makalu and Manaslu;
Or sitting on dunes
Dream again of oceans
Where they said they swam
With silver mermaids
And chased white unicorns
In Takamanohara.

I grew wings 

On their dreamings... 

But today
Where are they
now that I wish
to compare my myth 

With their fibs?
