Interlude with a Murderer Another night of thirsting Like a cheetah hunting for new blood A thousand whispering voices in my head Needing to feed one voice chattering Fresh meat,fresh kill For the dark passenger is back Lurking about in the shadows Hiding in the alleys Rambling through the woods The dark passenger And those thousand whispering voices Will soon be quiet,their thirst,hunger As well as mine will soon be over The tools to kill are simple and few A thin surgical steel blade All nice and shiny,and super sharp A rag loaded with chloroform Odorless,but yet swift to subdue A handful of sand to keep you from screaming In case you wake up in this living hell Grandiose plans I have for you Silent stealthy and swift From behind a rag over the face The chloroform is swift Her body is instantly limp Mustn't forget the sand Unbutton the shirt,or rip it off? Decisions,decisions I must be very careful A trophy I will need to take with me Ah! A fine specimen she is Firm,yet so very supple What enjoyment to me she will give Such a rush,an adrenaline high A high greater than a thousand hits of heroin The smell and taste of blood,of raw meat All good things will end though She will soon be all cold and stiff Without life to sustain it The dark passenger will return To feed again On to the next kill,and another And another |

Michael,
Wow, this is stark, chilling...scary how well you get into the mind of what I presume to be a serial killer. Your description seems spot on and as cold as the bloody murderer that he/she is. I must confess I was slightly thrown by the reference to the dark passenger as it seemed to be different entity from the murderer but also the murderer himself. perhaps that was the point. How the murderer is a dark passenger within a person that everyone else sees as normal...aha...if that be the case, then BRAVO...you have truly nailed it. Eerie ~ but very well done!
