So... I found a bunch of very old stuff I wrote in a journal. Stuff I'd completely forgotten about, that gives me this strange look at a me I don't totally remember being. It's messing with my head.
However.
During this excavation, I discovered a poem I wrote about Amargasaurus. No claim to quality, mind you. Just a novelty.
Amargasaurus, spiney-fair
My darling sauropod
May a peace descend upon
Your stormy bowels
Clippings of leaf and twig
Nipped by peg-like teeth
Now brewing hot
Now bubbling joyous
An Argentinian most Cretaceous
An elegant Diplodocid
Modest in proportion
Splendid in adornment
Weird. I clearly come from the Lt. Cmdr. Data school of poetical composition.
I think the next time a family member has a tummy flu, I shall say to them, "May a peace descend upon your stormy bowels." :)
