Helena Handbasket

By Tivoli

Once upon a time

a bloody-great asteroid smashed into the gulf of Mexico and wiped out all of the dinosaurs.
I thought we all knew that by now
But apparently not.
I joined Arachne at an Extinction Rebellion event in a passive role
“Would you like a leaflet?”
I wasn't evangelising
But even so, I was approached by a young and thoughtful climate emergency denier who challenged me to prove beyond any reasonable doubt that the climate was indeed heading in a destructive direction.
Arachne's image of that event shows my body-language following that encounter.
My challenger did at least acknowledge that he thought my heart was in the right place.
So this is an image of a dragon designed especially to assist with the scraping of shit off ones boots to the sound-track of another dinosaur who died too young
