Turf Monster

written by: Raphfael Wormge

Reaching,
Grabbing
Swiping at feet;
To feed a hunger
That needs quenching.

Here and there,
Everywhere; on
Different fields of play,
And the occasional Soccer
and Rugby pitches too.

Always attacking the
Runner’s foot;
Mad because they aren’t
There every day.

Regularly happy to grab feet
Of every shape and size;
Even on pitches across the world.

So as you are playing
The sport of your choosing,
Stay eternally aware
Of the elusive Monsters of Turf.

Bodies In The Basement by M. Taggart

It was a crisp, damp, October night.
“When we get to the Church I’ll go down first.” Colin was thinking of the moment when both he and Aaron would be standing at the top of the basement stairs peering down into the darkness.
The old stone Church was perched at the top of the largest hill on the prep school’s campus. Colin’s parents were professors at the school and their house was on campus grounds. They’d been waiting for Colin’s parents to fall asleep upstairs. Both boys were comfortable in their sleeping bags on the screened in porch. The lights had been turned out an hour ago and Colin felt it was time to slip into the night ...
