Death By Tea Towel

DEATH BY TEA TOWEL


The WANTED posters in the Flyland corridor
Tell of the unsolved  murder case involving Uncle Theodore,
Squashed with a wet tea towel in an execution-style fatal attack.
His crime? Walking on a meat and salad snack.
Flypolice have prepared a lookalike sketch (which may scare)
Of the killer : big white  legs with no hair;
Optics - only two, not complex - with glasses over the eye,
No wings - apparently unable to fly.  
Armed and dangerous. Carries rolled-up newspaper or wet tea towels.
Do not approach, but call C S I  Flyland - the professionals.
