Monkeys Last Heartfelt Scream

Do not poke spiders, pythons, alligators or crocodiles! Mommy had said. Monkey thought she was too cautions, always living way up in her head. He did not even know what a python was, so he poked a stick at a snake. Not recognizing his move was not good, until python’s tail gave a shake. He was being chased around the world now by an angry serpent mean. “Mommy!” monkey screeched, it was his very last heartfelt terrible scream.
