The cops were at the scene,
following the trail of blood
left from the body where it
had been dragged, bouncing
over the garbage and rubble .
Enclosed in a dark,
dank alley, her body
had been found. A smile
carved into her pale
flesh. The letter,
written with her blood,
mocked the authorities.
With gruesome detail,
the killer began to
explain the depth of
the pain the victim
had gone through,
with the promise of
more pain for the
next.
Rain began to fall
as the heavens wept.
This victim, at least,
was out of the reach
of pain, but what of
the next?
