The time traveler was just one lad who wanted to go to a different land.
For money and fame and adventure he built his device.
Buzz, groan, hisss protested the mad man's machine
But the warning falls on ears long gone.
Trees like hairy legs of giants reach for the sky.
A dragonfly the size of a bird zooms passed.
The time traveler knows he is in a land
That was never ruled by man.
Pop, a head appears out of the bushes.
It is covered in scales but larger than any lizard
Snorting the Triceratops warns its friends
Of the presence of an unwanted ape.
A roar of a terrible lizard shakes the ground.
The king of the jungle has noticed fresh prey in his land.
T-Rex insures that the rules of nature are enforced.
Glimmering his banana sized enforcers shine
In a smile that displays them all.
Like a mouse in the world of giants the human returns
back to where metal, not teeth, rule earth.
But as he trots away with this wisdom
To give the warning to his friends
He has forgotten an important item behind him
It is the shadow of a door that has been left open.
