Hello 🙂
Again we are faced with the wrong side of the law in tonight’s poem:
Superb Excited Mute Charge Coil Join Jobless Cute Labored
It was a superb idea.
I watched her: so excited
That for once
She remained mute;
Just that wide smile
With a million-volt charge.
I left the rope in its coil
As we drove to join
The jobless Mike
(And cute Miranda)
For that special dinner.
I thought about our conversation
As her breathing
Became laboured, later.
She’d worn such a beautiful necklace
It’d seemed wrong to waste it
Employing clumsy cordage.
I had, eventually, to break and bury it
Of course.
Leaving fingerprint evidence
Is never clever.
I have just started revisiting the second season of Fringe, and I think all this FBI action may be affecting my subconscious! Next thing you know, I’ll suddenly go all out and be writing about Post Mortems, shape shifters and strange mutant creatures…so watch this space! 😉
Do you think the speaker is male or female in this poem? What is their relationship to the victim? Have they killed before? Will they kill again? Are they happy with their handiwork? Are they murdering her out of revenge? Is it clear who the speaker actually bumped off?! Could it be Miranda s/he is talking about…?
I am not sure, so I’ll leave you lovely readers to speculate while I go and edit some of the many posts left in my drafts folder recently…
Tootles!
