Soularium

I know the dinosaur. He is my friend. I never knew how close I was to him until I saw the end.

It came to me in a dream of a cancerous tar pit.

The Tyrannosaurus Rex arose and rolled out a red carpet.

Come join us he said, your time has come

This world is ready for its next kingdom.

I ran up to greet him, feeling exhausted and relieved

He welcomed me with open claws and open jaws. For the first time I didn’t fear his gnarling fangs.

Your teeth ain’t so bad, I said. Just look at the hell I raised.

We toasted to a job well done as we sank into the pit.

Together we laughed about all of it.
