What Really Happened in the Cretaceous
(It only took 7+ years! The revised poem follows the rougher draft.)
Posted 01-06-2002 at the Poetry Free-For-All:
What Really Happened in the Cretaceous
Rompity-Stompity
Rex, the tyrannosaur,
wrote with unmetrical
feet in his work.
Doubledactylicus,
formalist saurian,
published his treatise and
then went berserk.
-----
I would probably amend this thusly:
What Really Happened in the Cretaceous
Fondle-a-Rondelet
Rex, the tyrannosaur,
wrote with unmetrical
feet in his work.
Doubledactylicus,
formalist saurian,
read Rex: Collected and
then went berserk.

The original was dedicated to Teela, a poster at the Poetry Free-For-All, for the inspiration.
