And so...

The game's afoot my dear Watson!
'Tis very plain to me
Do you see the progression of the plot
and the plan of Moriarty?

"I'm afraid not, Holmes
I think you have lost your mind"
Watson, surely you can see?
"I think you've started to unwind"

"Too many mysteries, you've unraveled
your habits too excess
I do not see the plot sir
I see him nor the villainess"

The walls have ears, dear Watson
Be careful what you say
His plan is slowly working
He's opened my mail today!

The proof is here, I see it!
The wax seal is counterfeit
He knows our every move it seems
"Holmes, you've too many China dreams!"

"Cry Wolf my friend, they won't believe"
Take a holiday or two
Lay off the pipe, the hypodermic
It will be good for you"

Meanwhile, the plot does thicken
Watson unaware
He doesn't see before his nose
He doesn't have a care

And so, the villainess and her master
dupe him once again
"Let loose the Hounds of Baskerville
release them from their chains!

and the boys, LOL! I laughed so hard at this, I could almost see it as a skit on television or on stage! brutally funny... eddy says focus not your spyglass at my countenance! I will not be frying in your pan! my favorite lines are:

And so, the villainess and her master
dupe him once again
"Let loose the Hounds of Baskerville
release them from their chains!

I like your title, it is like something I would do, LOL! i really liked that the poem was fast paced right to the very end. at no place did it drag. I have no suggestions, not a word would I change. just a little reminder:
Anubis is not a Baskerville Hound, LOL!!!

*hugs, Cat

SNL isn't it? [Saturday Night Live]. I enjoyed the writing of it almost as much as one might have read it. Thank you for the generous applause of my portrayal of Holmes and Watson's little skit. ~ Geez and the boys.
