Title: The Kettle Whistle
Fandom: Sherlock Holmes (ACD)
Rating: Gen
Length: 41
Content Notes: Rime couée; POV Holmes
Summary: Holmes after Victor Trevor leaves for Terai
Author's Note: Follows my fic Correspondence, in which Victor Trevor ends up saying goodbye to Holmes in a 6 word telegram (after pouring his heart out in draft letters).


The kettle whistle makes me bristle so.

Reminds me tea is here, is near. And oh!

A telegram’s a curt epistle, no?

What bitter dregs for friends!

This tragic act, it ends

With me, and tea, made foul by wistful woe!

Poor Sherlock. If only they'd communicated better.

But yay for the kettle whistle. If your cab whistle poem doesn't come together in time, you could always post it for Amnesty.
