Missing Girl

Missing Girl? They have a child, a little girl A special gift a diamond a pearl The left her alone so they could play They find her dead the next day. Fake the scene, make it safe Make it clean. Call the law When there’s no incrimination Spend a few hours down the Station, blame the phantom Who doesn’t exist. Form a charity A fantasy of family bliss. Involve the world to change The narrative, they know she Is dead, crocodile tears, inventive Ask them a question and And they scatter the blame They are believed, bare no shame What really occurred? Well work it out. Not a kidnapping Just mystery and doubt. David Cox 15/09/24
