Red Herring
As a young boy
when not very old
I did enjoy
being told
grisly bedtime stories
by my Mother
the favourite was
none other
than
altho' I was just a nipper

Three Four, Under the FloorOne, two,
I think I'm through;
Three, four,
under the floor;
Five, six,
I'm in a fix;
Seven, eight,
he met his fate;
Nine, ten,
I'm in the pen;
Eleven, twelve,
my hopes to shelve;
Thirteen, fourteen,
clean with chlorine;
Fifteen, sixteen,
bloody crime scene;
Seventeen, eighteen,
murder unforeseen;
Nineteen, twenty,
stole my Good & Plenty.

POET MURDER WROTEEssence of wealth
Inheritance health
Jealousy divine
Life changes
Rearrange of financial eyes
Hidden and full of surprises
Murder on the mind
Thought of inheritance
Wealthy promise
The rage
Death will come to one
Elegant party
Drinks and dancing all around
Conversations flow
Suddenly a fall then death
Pronounced Dead
Poison found in the drink
That sip
Situation now a circumstance
Mystery Murderer
The outcome will turn into clues
The murderer wants to redirect and bring...

It could be Arsenicinnoxious odor
faintly fishy
I think of salmon I say
it could be arsenic

it reminds me of catfish

trying to salvage the family meal.

ShoelacesWe hurried.
Picked the body up.
His shoe fell off.
And we never found it.
Shoelaces.
Laced all the way through.
Over and over.
I shouldn’t have.
Sitting oddly.
Mannequin resting in my mind.
His hat falls off.
Nothing sits right.
I wish we could have left him there.
The ghastly remains.
Like that shoe.
I don’t...

Harassment at homeAt 7 she is at her father’s mercy
She will be shown no mercy
A life with absolutely no love
She will be like a lonely dove
Sitting in the nest
Doing her best
She will never taste true love
She will never be as free as a dove
Being groped and touched by her dad
Is a life that is so very sad
She...

The Perfect Murder
There’s someone that you want to kill,
but ride it out, avoid the rope?
You’d spare the chair in prisonville?
Then I am here to give you hope!
Number one, you don’t want blood.
Don’t be Wilson, be Joe Starrett.
You’ll never come to any good
the day you spill your victim’s claret.
Blood will give the game away.
They’ll find the pattern on...

Now, a Church Attacked
Lawlessness comes home to roost

Toxic Beauty
ART!
He painted my death,
With such dedication I've never seen before.
Every stroke of his brush, on that paper, marking out each curve, twist, and turn my body made
As I writhed in pain.
Premeditated murder, or a death masquerading as suicide, or perhaps just an unlucky soul.
My hands on my throat as I choked to death,
He didn't...

The autopsy of a black bodyAn autopsy of a black body
One who suffered greatly
The body pushed past its limits
To the point it had enough and quit
A scalpel to their chest
Slowly peeling the layers of flesh
Noticing the rot
Hit by the stench of trauma
The body dissected
The organs removed
Leaving the body an empty shell
Of a broken person
Beaten by an...
