Two of our members are heading to Magna–
Magna cum Murder, a mystery con.
You going, too? Look ’em up and say howdy.
Maybe sit in on some panels they’re on.
Mystery, mayhem, the hard-boiled, the cozy,
All kinds of crime, everywhere that you look!
Murder is fun, if it’s only in fiction,
Focused on bringing the bad guys to book.
To book. Get it? Mystery book? It’s a pun, see? Oh, you do see, you just don’t think it was worth reading bad poetry for. Okay, fair enough.
Well, we’ll see you in Muncie or else we’ll see you here when we get back.
