Nothing Can Be Proven Poem by Margaret Alice

The dinosaur project is underway
we needed an hypothesis and quite
amazingly found one: Nothing about
the genera of dinosaurs can be proven -
whether they were plant-eaters or
carnivores; whether certain types
belong to them or another group
of reptiles; whether they vanished
from the face of the earth because
of a meteorite or an illness like
pandemic HIV Aids - nobody can tell
for sure! It’s a free-for-all!
With my boy of eleven having to
come to a conclusion, all we can say
is: Scientists and Paleontologists,
enjoy yourselves, unless you find binding
proof, without observation dinosaurs
are a spoof - one scientist hinted
they may have existed only as
constructs of our imagination!
