Street Walking Killer Part 7
She thought she was smart
Never leaving a trail
Soon this ride she’s on
Would most likely derail
For the charm held the key
That she had not seen
The giver of the charm
Would soon make the scene
The detective had found
What store made the charm
The jeweler made one
That was cause for alarm
Sold to a young man
Almost a year before
With credit it was paid
Now to even the score
The name on the slip
John Tompkins it said
Was all the he needed
The detective then fled
Then back to the station
At the computer he sat
To find Mr Tompkins
To find him at that
It appeared he’s in town
Address not too far
So he ran from the station
And went to his car
