The Real Reason Dinosaurs Eat Electricity



With a purposeful grimace and a terrible sound
He pulls the city’s high tension lines down

Godzilla!









Dinosaurs eat electrical lines.
Godzilla always pulls the wires down
before crushing the buildings downtown.
Scientists say the monster’s back shines

and it’s as if the dinosaur “mines”
energy from the wires, but they frown
because raw current should fry him brown—
wires are not how biology dines.

I think the scientists have this wrong.
I think it’s old age having a go
at youth when the dinosaur grabs at

wires, roaring like a dinosaur song.
Kids can’t make electric sounds if no
current flows. So the old thing stops that.
