if you give a baby dinosaur a cheerrio...

if you give a baby dinosaur a cheerrio
chances are he'll go to great lengths to get another one.
he'll push the chairs out from the kitchen table-
which will remind him
 how you were sitting there this morning eating something tasty in a bowl
 and how you so sweetly gave him just one to taste-
he'll look around and won't know you're watching
because if you're watching you won't be paying attention to the dishes you're doing
and if you're not paying attention to the dishes you are doing
chances are he could casually make his way up without you noticing.
and if you didn't notice then 
maybe 
just maybe 
he could get said cheerrio
that's been left
behind
and when he gets said cheerrio
it'll remind him that 
it was you who gave him that tasty bite this morning
and that's when he'll realize
he's on top of the kitchen table
while you're watching-
so,
if you give a baby dinosaur a cheerrio 
chances are 
he'll do what he has to do to get another one-
getting caught be damned ;0
