Strip by: Colin Foster

T-Rex: Shall I compare thee to a summer's day?
T-Rex: Because DAMN you're hot!
Dromiceiomimus: Why are you butchering Shakespeare?
T-Rex: I'm coming up with literary pick-up lines!
Utahraptor: I wouldn't be impressed by that!
T-Rex: What would be impressive?
Utahraptor: Dr. Seuss pick-up lines!
T-Rex: Will you meet me at the bar?
Off-panel character: I will hit you with my car.

The author writes:

When you think about it, Shakespeare and Dr. Seuss are probably two of the most widely read poets nowadays.

Sucks for you, William Wordsworth.
