Alone in a lost world,

an ear piercing roar in the distance
birds chirps through the wind,
a boy is running through the jungle.

Alone in a lost world,
trees shake like in earthquake behind him...
a frightened triceratops runs towards,
larger footsteps follow behind it.

Alone in a lost world,
the boy goes hidden inside a bush...
a Trex appears surrounding the triceratops
it strikes gruesomely knocking the triceratops down.

Alone in a lost world,
an arm grabs the boy...
“Derek calm down” his mother says.
“We are just in the museum”.
