    PUZZLES and MYSTERIES and GAMES

    A poem by Terry Walstrom

    For Puzzles, I only have cross words to mutter;

    they’re utterly *dunnies’ arcades

    Agatha Christie confounds me, (astounds me)

    it’s the gun, or the knife, or the maid!

    Vera kills Lombard then old Justice Wargraves

    (who’s terminally ill - that’s the gist)

    Gets comeuppance eftsoon - (worth tuppence to me,)

    Just yanks my old knickers a twist!


    GAMES

    Sudoku is classy and checkers, déclassé


    Chess is my passion, alas!

    Bishops and castles exceedingly facile

    So scathingly brilliant as I checkmate your ass!


    _________
    *Noun. dunny (plural dunnies) (UK dialect, derogatory euphemistic, obsolete) A dummy, an unintelligent person.
