Rise of the Ripper 2

You’ve heard of Brady and Hindley
And I'm sure Poll Pot too
You've heard of Fred and Rose West
and the evil that they do

Jack the Ripper had a son
Did he follow in his steps?
Find out about the boy
And learn what he did best

But this time there’s a change
From Jack, the carnage carried on
William and Emily are their names
And they played their evil as one

Even after their passing
To the world beyond this
They came back and tormented
Giving their children no wedded bliss.

Not just in Victorian times
Right up to Elizabethan
The legacy that Jack left
Still cannot be beaten.

Find out in my new book
A romantic, psychological gripper
You already know the title
The Rise of the Ripper

Wow - I didn't know that Mandy. There are so many evil leaders these days I do wonder if the gene was passed on. I loved your story/poem and I think it can be made into a theatrical or musical drama. All the best. Maria
