Extract

A race of sucklers, with gnashing jaws,you finished the tale of the dinosaurus,but you'll never rise above the earthas we: you're dust and soil and dearth,an organised pack with famished maws. -Maybe you'll rise from your mud one day.How much, it's up to you say."(from 'The Last Dinosaur' in Huojuvat keulat, 1946)
