I creep the shadows,
wrapped in night,
I stalk my victim,
Out of sight.
There she is,
She has no clue,
No hint of what,
shall now ensue
The darkness thickened,
my pace quickened
this balmy night,
has my heart stricken.
poised to lash out
weapon in hand,
So careful now
where each strike lands
I finish my deed,
with stealth and haste,
each stroke thought out,
none gone to waste....
How dare this wretch....
She gave out toothpaste......
splat

Hahaha, payback for someone giving out toothpaste.
At first I had a bit of a creepy feeling, like Jack The Ripper was making another round.
...and then I literally laughed out loud at the turn around of the story.
