Murdering Mouse
They murdered her without conscience, concern or caring
No one knew her real name
They called her mouse but no one remembers why
She should not have been here! They are argued.
Agreeing never to divulge what had happened
Mouse’s murder was never solved
But the bridge turned ugly
People came with spray bottles
Defiling and defacing it
Maybe Mouse’s relatives.
No one knew why
But after her murder
The bridge forever remained
the place that girl was murdered
And it stayed perpetually ugly
like the bullies' lack of conscience, concern or caring
