The Natural History Museum

A mucky poem about a wise old curator at the Natural History Museum pondering what we really know about the dinosaurs.

Within the grand Jurassic room  The wise curator sits, And idly starts to wonder  If the dinosaurs had tits. When reaching adolescence,  Did their scaly chests become A pair of swinging mammeries  To nutrify their young? How would a female T-Rex,  With short arms and bulbous breast, Contrive to put a bra on,  In the morning, getting dressed? And did the mighty brontosaur,  Whose height is so renowned Evolve with longer legs to keep  Her nipples off the ground.
