Chicken Big, 34



Frightening Doggerel

Serpentine: ophidiophobia

Among his very worst mistakes—
This guy who feared all kinds of snakes—
Was thinking that he’d seen some fakes

When he saw rattlesnakes atop
His bed. They bit him—wouldn’t stop
Until his wife called “Help!” A cop

Arrived, but he was much too late,
It seems our snake-guy had a date
With hungry Death. And such is Fate.
