To find this hidden broadside of mine, Look in a building big and "Fine!" If you hear sweet voices singing and humming, You're on the right track to E.E. Cummings! Take a trip, take a flight, And you will have him in your sights! Where students go to find a cheap snack, You will find my favorite poem tacked!

New Broadside! Listen up, facebook friends, to this cryptic letter, Because the Broadside game just got a whole lot better! A reward awaits you that's super sweet, At the rosy place where two roads meet! A spot where students come to sip, study, and chat, Is the spot where you'll find this sweet reward at! Inside, where you can hear the expresso machine growl, There are three poems to be had SIGNED BY DAN HOWELL!!!
