Excerpt

Cat and Mouse
by Eric Ode

The mouse, it's said,
finds cats ill-bred.
They make his stomach sicken.
My cat thinks mice
are rather nice
And taste a bit like chicken.

Excuse Cheer
by Timothy Tocher

Our center's nose was runny. Our forwards had the flu.
The guards were feeling funny. That's why we lost to you.
Your team is overrated. We really didn't try.
Our coach was constipated. I'm telling you no lie.
Now go and take a shower and hop back on your bus.
You know we'll beat you next time, so you'd best watch out for us!
