The man at the alligator farm
Put on the most terrific show.
Displaying no fear whatsoever,
He took charge of the situation
And engaged the snapping,
Tail whipping, twisting reptiles
With the savoir faire
Of the devil may care.
Spectators where held in
A sense of wonderment
And awe. Particularly,
When he forcefully pried
Huge reptilian jaws apart
With his hooks (once hands)
And inserted his scarred,
Partially gnarled head
Into the jaws of death
While ignoring the small gator
Sinking its sharp teeth into
His faux-mahogany peg leg.
