look at the snake
who eats his own tail
look at him chomp
are you feeling pale?

the snake doesn’t mind
he likes it, you see
i’d prefer he eats him
than eats you and/or me

he bites and he swallows
from his end to his end
until he loops ’round
and starts up again

just one hungry snake
one scaled little loop
whose poop is his head
and whose head is his poop
