Rise of the Ripper

Through the streets of Whitechapel
 A monster roamed them all
 He left behind a history
Many to enthral
 But who knew the romance 
The lover behind this affray
 He may wield a knife but in fact
 Was Jack gay?
 A romantic, emasculated by a wife
 A sexual experience
Affected him for life
 Read about the romance
 The lover, murderer too
 It's all in my new book
 A paranormal tale for you
 If you want a good yarn 
My book is just a gripper
 It's out in November and it’s called Rise of the Ripper
