\n\"The<\/a>
\n<\/em><\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

MIME CRIME<\/font><\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

Behind the mime’s white mask was played<\/font>
\n a game of chess with cost defrayed<\/font>
\n until the tide came in at last,<\/font>
\n and toppled pieces from the past.<\/font><\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

The game had played out fairly fair<\/font>
\n in poetry with words to spare.<\/font>
\n A marvel of a write it was,<\/font>
\n as beauty did as beauty does.<\/font><\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

But then the mime came miming in<\/font>
\n with dissonance foul chiming in;<\/font>
\n confused the rules and took the king,<\/font>
\n confounding chase for freedom’s ring.<\/font><\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Now the board is soaked and silent,<\/font>
\n corrupted by mime’s sewage hydrant..<\/font>
\n Pieces lie in disarray.<\/font>
\n Can we make him go away?<\/font><\/p>\n

<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n
