Listen to poem:
Who Killed Jonbenet
Who killed little JonBenet?
And who placed her where she lay?
“Don’t accuse poor poor me,
I’m not a monster” said Patsy,
but now that mother
and child are gone
questions remain about Patsy and John.
The cops suspect who and why
this beautiful little girl had to die.
“O what must you think of me?
I didn’t kill her” said Patsy.
“Please! Please! Believe me,
how could I do it?” said Patsy.
“She was my sweet
darling little girl,
a beauty queen to dance and twirl.
Her short life was mine to save
but now she lies in her grave.
No, it wasn’t me, it wasn’t me,
I didn’t kill her” said Patsy.
“This can’t be, it wasn’t me,
and I’m sticking to my story.
No, I won’t confess
and do the time,
I did not commit this heinous crime.
I didn’t write the ransom note
that a killer’s hand coldly wrote.
I wouldn’t do it, it wasn’t me,
I didn’t kill her” said Patsy.
“No stranger did this to me”
would say JonBenet Ramsey.
“I was kissed goodnight
and put to bed
then taken in the night and left for dead”.
Was it the mother to JonBenet
who gave her life and took it away?
Or does a grim tale of murder lurk
alas in John or brother, Burke?
