Tunnel of Hate
Some children found her battered, bloody corpse
inside the tunnel, face down in the trash;
they screamed, 'She's hurt' and ran to fetch some help.
Detectives wondered why he'd left her cash.
They didn't catch the brutal killer (or at least,
they still don't know he's doing time now as 'The Beast').
