Malkavian 4

I present unto you Unsub one and unsub two Each looks as I do They think like me too Unsub one will have some fun Killing everyone that survived Unsub two will handle the cops and news As soon as they arrive A cover up is under way Another tragic terrorist attack On this terribly troubling day One dead lost his head Two followed his blood I swallowed Three found I came up from the ground Four more Their limbs I tore A bakers dozen Crammed them in an oven A group of five in all Splatter them against the wall Look at that Six with a single swing of a bat A group of seven children Eenie meenie minie moe Grab the first by the toe When she hollers Swingherathighvelocityintotheothers I threw a couple into the sky Its not that fall that makes them die It’s the sudden stop Plop plop A man that was rather old I thought how much Will his body fold I stopped at ten So much creaking and cracking It was disgusting It made me a little sic I threw up a bit But onward I marched on Killing and killing Than more killing There were more left then I thought But I didn’t stop Until they all got got Except they didn’t all get gotten I heard the beating throng Of a heart that was strong But faint as faint can be Without being not there So I marched on Following that throng It lead to the hospital And deep down the elevator Which I had to hack Beneath the basement Into some sort of hidden room There on a bed Full of tubes And other such doctoral things Was a raven haired fair maiden I went to her chart While I read I soaked in the sound Of her steady pumping heart Lilith What a weird name Medically induced coma No trauma or reason given To subdue This raven haired fair maiden So I asked her What am I to do with you Like I said she was in a coma Unresponsive The human mind is a funny thing So many dillusions Illusions Misperceptions It so easy to control their minds Make all there senses My loyal princes Duty to the kingdom Smell the fire see the signs Of a chemical attack No survivors This fireman looks so strong And I’m so hungry I’ll eat just one We’ll say he died in a heroic way And these fine policeman So courageous and noble I best they taste affable We’ll say they died in a heroic way This news woman Regal and refined I bet she tastes divine We’ll say she just got in dangers way And here a group of paramedics So alert and vehement They’ll make a condiment For these delicious looking camera men We’ll say they died in a heroic way Just got in dangers way Oh dear I seemed to have eaten them all I’m such a glutton You know you messed up when Your cover up needs a cover up

Nathan, I think I understand this one. For all its grisly imagery, all about the cover ups. I am hearing so much from some of my friends about the fake news, etc. What a world we live in!!
