"Small Black Reptile"
Sporting effects
In a small black reptile
Broadened at the shoulder
And swing at the hips
Room for a big fish
A crack of whips
Demander of service
And generous tips
Narrow in the eye
And puller of wool
The bow on the purse strings
Diaries full, arrangements fixed
A crossing of arms
The sucking of cheeks
The appetite rich
From scaling peaks
Badges of office
Extensive plates
Cultivating pets
Expensive dates
