Boy Dinosaur, Chores and a Candy Store
Once, a boy dinosaur named Vore wanted to explore outdoors
rather than stay home completing morning chores. So, one morn, he didn't stay, but sought his brave and snuck out while his Mom snored.
Vore walked further than he had ever before. He only paused when he felt soreness flare in his paws and claws. Vore used his mouth and tongue to relieve his feet and did somewhat succeed. He continued walking more that he ever had before and soon found himself lost in a stare. He stood floored and more, guessing this his quest had taken him right to the sight of the fabled human shore. "I don't believe this, it really does exist.", he said to himself. He saw human pups and adults licking something in cone cups, plus others smacking their lips after snacking on layers were surely tasty galore. Eddy decided the building his eyes were filming had to be a candy store.
From the store soared laughter that captured Vore's curiosity and pulled him like gravity to enter the novelty door. He got stuck in the entry and modesty completely struck him when he felt all eyes bore on him, a babe dino eyesore! Knowing he was an oddity, Vore kept his eyes hostilely aimed at the floor and
silently wished to implore able wings and vanish in a soar. "You're not ordinary candy store decor." It was a girl pup being kind enough. Vore's gratitude grew a good mood, especially when, to his surprise, all the human pups offered up sweet stuff. In fact, Vore ate pup-candy supplied in heaps even his dreams had never supplied.
Vore lived his entire life stuck in that door, candied to his core. In time, dinosaurs and people grew to treat each other as equal which, thankfully, allowed Vore's family to visit him and ease all his anxiety over his irreversibility. In time, Vore and the store both dissolved in land that evolved into Mount Rushmore where carvings score four men who as small boys had completed and accepted their chores, and had also departed every entered candy store door.
