POETRY CORNER

Another trip back to series 2 this issue, where we join Stuart and his motley horde, whose disregard for a simple Dungeon rule became their fatal flaw.

Stuart’s Leicester gentlemen

Did not score a perfect ten.

Past combat chess and fiery pit,

Igneous then tested wit.

The stinging tail was no setback,

But Lillith was on the attack.

With glove in hand, the way was clear,

The Automatum caused great fear.

With door unlocked, the well was found,

And Stu went deeper underground.

In cave below, and in monk’s habit,

Mogdred had an evil rabbit.

The team refused to be dismayed,

So further on their game was played.

With clues to choose the quest did stagger,

Through dowser spurned for deadly dagger.

The team forgot the Dungeon laws,

So had no clue to class the doors.

Although Olaf’s sweet tooth was fed,

Stuart still did end up dead!
