A tale of infidelity.
Dinosaur Smuggler once doubled back;
found Someone Else with his wife in the sack.
He roared like a Tyrannosaurus in heat;
nimble and nude, Someone Else hit the street.

Dinosaur riveted his cheating wife;
she tried to grin but his glare was a knife.
Out in the street Someone Else picked at lint;
a neighbor eyed him but she had to squint.

Then in the din of a Dinosaur roar,
Allie arose and sashayed to the door.
Without a sound she brewed chamomile tea,
munched on Ritz Crackers along with some brie.

Meanwhile, Someone Else sought a safe port;
he walked erect but his searching fell short.
Suddenly a man with a silver beard,
saw Someone Else and slowed down as he neared.

Someone Else eagerly nodded his head,
but his escape was a pickup truck bed.
Back at the house in the chill of the night,
Dinosaur waned in the pain of uptight.

Once in Toronto a man and his wife
saw Someone Else cause distress in their life.
Allie discovered through selfish device,
terrible lizards are not worth the price.
