A Bus of Dinonaurs

To honor the mother who raised him the baby that grew from baby to baby collects a bus full of baby dinosaurs and goes with them in pitches to play Asked why he loves baby dinosaurs he answers back with silent arrogance “I am a dinosaur in mind, body and soul babyish as me I like their blind company They are best toys that ever lived on earth. Under my control I play with them freely. They obey me and act without objection. Virtue or vice, they are busy for me gladly When I move with them in a caged bus, each a tag of sport I scatter them to play, playing without care they give me results. drowsy humans gape at them score goals Among them I am the only one with soul. None of them possesses any mind like me I take advantage of their sly creature-hood, to build my empire with fools among fools
