Doug Blake H YOU UNDERSTAND Rain Drops I cry easily Beading My tears defying both prediction and control On all the pavements Some might label my cry baby Gathered-- They do not understand To be rained on But you do. Small rivulets Running I cry indiscriminately, Through the gutters? Anything is apt to unbar the floodgates--- Becgming the flogd Movies, music, weddings, even happiness. In the gaping sewers The sight of little children often chokes me up Of the city. So do you. The final log Flickering. . .briefly I cry when frustrated, Not even eraekling now Judy asks, Daddy why is Mommy crying? The lite--Slowly dying: You patiently explain how wonderfully therapeutic Turn from my window A good cry can be.

o OUR if 3013.32 Tenebris M older TWO DISCOVERIES Good old Creepy and little baby Crawley Were left alone, together, with a minimum of barley. Little baby Crawley meandered to the food Observing good ole Creepy we saw he didn lt brood. Each was found to eat at leisure, neither was a hoarder We were amazed when we discovered Mealies have no pecking order.' Eventually the foodstuff diminished Our Creepy and Crawley were nearly finished. Starving and famished Creepy looked toward his brother Were either inclined to devour the other? Soon it was evident, the thought was unrealistic For we clearly saw - - - -Mealies are non-cannibalisticf And so fellow scientists We 're here to report In the field of worms: we ye uncovered a lot. . . Mealies won Lt murder, They 're much, much, too kind. And there 's no pecking order To that tradition, they be blind And now from our findings One tentative conclusion we draw for your good Don 't murder or peck.' Be like the mealwormf Oh that everyone would.' I have before me, in this jar A mealworm, which is by far The ugliest thing I 've ever seen It 's long, and white , and rather lean. Divided into 13 pieces - I find that its activity ceases, Xkfhen cut along its middle line, I 'rn shocked to find, it has no spine.' With only 6 legs, I wonder how, It ever gets around at all.' And I will be the first to say That being a mealworm doesn it pay. Sr. Bonnie Anne Form 7 DIRGE FOR A IVIEALWORM Though I try to examine him with all my might, I find he puts up no helluva fight. Wiggling and squirming here and there Up my arm - into my hair.' In a valiant effort to pacify I thought a drop of water I 'd try- And suddenly he 's still and cold, I 'rn feeling brave and somewhat bold. And then, like Lazuras hom the grave, I-le revived himself, the little knave.' I took him up and dunked him fast But then I thought that he had breathed his last. But his final words were rather dim, You idiot, I can't swim! J e ff Hucul Form 4 86
