Spitting Cobra

flexes his biceps
       tucks his flabby tummy in
              vanity in vain

              a score to settle
                     through tough machismo's battle
                           male ego's  title

                           but can't hit his foe
                                spits on his face, oh, no
                                      worse than a KO !
