there was an amazing stunned look on the man who was eaten by his mechanical
python at the circus
the carney was sneering and shouting
when his snake rose above him
and took in his head
it rose like a monster
and opened its mouth
it plunged once again
and took in his shoulders
and opened up wider
forcing him in
it swallowed him whole
I'll never forget the look on the snake
As it triumphed that night
Nor the sound of his master
As he questioned his fate
