Prehistoric Pals

PREHISTORIC      PALS

Two male dinosaurs asking each other to dance, shake their ass.
From the neo-Van Gough sky  and psychedelic grass,

I’d say these two  recently did some smokin’.
By the look of those two stiff ‘n’ high vertical  tails 
They are both “very pleased” to see each other:
Just look at the leer on the guy’s face to the right 
And the sexual show of teeth from the left hand fellow.
Right guy is also pointing with dino-forefinger 
And saying - hey man I dig  YOU. . .  I mean YOU, baby !
Right guy has the experienced  look of love in his tender eye;
Left guy is a virgin, somewhat surprised by the whole event -
He’s not much of a dancer - you can see he’s duck-toed.
But he’s a fashion buff,   check out the sharp spines on his back.
Right guy works out and has the dino-barrel chest;
But left guy is a beer-drinker with a belly to prove it.

Probably both of them came from  the San Francisco  Bay 
Some  two hundred million years ago, give or take a day.

Oh, this is hilarious, Syd. I just love your take on the cartoon. (Also appreciated the San Franciso joke at the end.) If the sponsor is looking for humor, this would be hard to top! Best wishes in the contest. Love, Carolyn
