in a mist i awake
of smells and thoughts
and sonic flakes
no mind have i to see the past
it fades into haze and never lasts
the light of day goes through my eyes
into my brain to fossilize
in the dusty ancient
texts

"Paradox Lost" by Vincent Di Fate (1974) |
brontosaurus,
pterodactyl,
tyrannosaurus rex
epochs and eons
of struggle and toil
for a ton of coal
and a barrel of oil
for those of us today
a silent fear persists
if lizard kings could speak they’d say
we’re alive so briefly we barely exist
we question what we think
but seldom what we saw
we see what we believe
i see . . . dinosaurs
