The ribcage of a long dead dinosaur
who once roamed the jungles of a long lost
paradise, now a desert stretching far
and wide in every direction. The host
of symbiotic parasites it its
intestines: worms and slugs and other bugs
helping the digestion of little bits
of conifers that the dinosaur chugs.
Where are they now, these dragons who once roamed
the earth, who dominated the planet,
who ate smaller dragons and who had combed
through ancient trees for sustenance. The net
of an alien race, spacefarers from
mars, hunted the dinosaurs large and dumb.

i was going to re-title this
but it was way down the list
and i don't think that i will
get to it in any kind of
reasonable amount of time
i am re-titling a bunch of poems
and it is taking longer than i
thought it would
it usually does
i have done this stuff before, but
usually just a few at a time
