Right under Cedric’s house
lived an enormous alligator
a pet he kept secret, for many years
until one day
the alligator got fed up with steak
and wanted to try something sweet
so up he came to greet his master…
murder? yes… but not much mystery
the police said
general belief was this…
there was more than one reptile down there
unfortunately
(they haven’t managed to trace the second one yet)
the NYPD Notes…
they are still searching for a few gentlemen
who were neighbors
they were playing strip poker at the time
at least four of them are believed to be British
apparently, they were all poets…
