Our youngest cat has been totally into the Big 12 Championship game. We know she’s a Jayhawk fan even though she hasn’t actually said the words.

March Madness
Would Naismith get a kick out of
All the fuss surrounding his game?
Sixty-four teams (not counting the play-ins)
Split into compass directions:
Midwest,
East,
South, and
West.
I spend hours painfully
Using logic and following
Instincts, tracking down
Statistics and looking at
Home court advantages.
Jayhawks here, Wildcats there.
Duke, Gonzaga, Georgetown,
Longhorns, and Bears.
It’s hard to keep my heart from
Ruling my head, but
My bracket fills rung by rung
Until the ladder has but one name
In the center box.
A champion!
Iowa State, the Cyclones,
A three seed to win it all.
The perfectly completed bracket.
Of course, they fell to a fourteen seed in
Round one.
Dammit.

Peace, people!
