Poem by Wynne Renz

A dinosaur
Gave his life

For you

To go on
Mythologizing

The natural
Order of

Happenings into
Chaotic

Organized
Memes

It’s all one big
Misunderstanding

Life
Doesn’t care

If you
Go, stay

Here, and
Die with me tonight?

It’s too late
To be wondering

Out there, all alone
Indebted to

Unimaginable
Beasts

When
All of us lay

Born unto the end
Either way
