Dinodreams

Be afraid Be very afraid Suchomimus

When you dream - what do you dream about?


I dreamt of dinosaurs in black and white.

It was an old fashioned time machine
all whirling wheels and flashing light.

Going back in time, I saw glimpses, images, distant shadows.

Dino Dream

It was like a slide projector, an old TV or a ride on the El,
but with scary neighbors of the Mesozoic kind.

Were there tiny mammals in that far distant time?
Or some ancestor of tiny mammals, or of us?
Is that why we hope to see our shadows - or fear them?
