Turning Point For the Faint of Heart

Id's eye
            alighted
          on a lamp
            It did

          A thought
            arose
          and ere
            it hid

          Id fleshed 
            it out
          Id's ego
            placed a bid          

          The lamp -- a dinosaur
            with mighty, godlike power
          eviscerates computer screens
            no more of them to be seen

          From hideous jaws
            it spewed hot fire
          Eyeing this ~
            Id expired
