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
