The Constant Dinosaur

Some day soon 
Wall Street giants
will walk on their hands

never sit or sleep. 
They will eat 
with their feet

as nostrils drip
and neckties droop.
With toilets extinct

they will launch 
missiles that blot out
the sun and moon

while in the dark
the constant dinosaur 
of greed will roam

the avenue and eat 
the little people  
one chomp at a time.
