Dinosaur I am confused with the many of my kind with all the names of my kind, linked and lumped together chiefly for being frighteningly large. We lived with fire, water and air. The green of the earth was at our disposal. The blue expanse of sky smiled upon us. Hills and valleys were our portals and hallways. Thunderstorms washed over us as showers. When the moon settled in its night place we lowered our necks, and slept in water beds. The ground trembled on our waking, the very forests parting at our advance. There were no humans to record our birth and death. We are a mere piece of your endless puzzle now. You plunder our gravepits and exhume us in shreds and shards. You paste us together from length to breadth, and remake us as gaping spectacles of wonder and awe. We fascinate because we were huge and great, and because, after our infinite reign, we were only finite.
