Murder Most Meddlesome

MURDER MOST MEDDLESOME

streaking into the dark of night
he received news of his demise
when he was out for a car ride
he received a marked gift
slipped from a friend to his side
beside himself with terror
disappeared into the black and blue
became a GOLDEN BOY* extra and
rejoiced -  after all
IT’S A WONDERFUL LIFE*

Chris Green April 12, 2017 at 1:14 PM I am going to have to look him up. I have seen both movies but am not sure who he is. Your poem is dark and creepy and creates some strange thoughts of what happened in my mind Kim Rodrigues April 12, 2017 at 1:36 PM Enjoy your research!
