the locket |
| Moonlit cafe, jazz in the background |
| Clock strikes 12 as my partner gets sat down |
| «Mad town, ain’t it?"heard him say between the sirens |
| But we both knew the answer so there’s no point in replying now |
| Someone made a call about an hour ago |
| About a body found, left out on Countington road |
| No signs of struggle, no trauma sticking out or exposed |
| Just a heart-shaped locket with two flowers enclosed |
| A single rose in a gold-tinted tunic |
| With an old-scented tulip wrapped around it’s fragile stem |
| And behind the flora’s aura was engraved a battle hymn |
| It read «Better find me before I do it again» |
| No cause of death was ever found, nor identity recovered |
| It resembled a cadaver that was placed to be discovered |
| And it only took two weeks until we found another |
| But this time it was the figure of our home state’s governor |
| Wait, wait, wait, wait, no… heart racing |
| The same circumstances, location, and pacing? |
| The same twisted flowers, same fingerprint erasing |
| And the same heart shape with the same gold casing? |
| The same engraving, but now a new message: |
| «This was your last chance to learn your lesson.» |
| A threat in/of itself, but upon further inspection |
| The carvings housed tainted blood samples and resin |
| Close examination led to find the same poison |
| In the body of the first victim that had been reported |
| Details recorded, mulled over, and considered |
| Were thought to be going nowhere until we received a picture |
| Of our victims at a party, hot and heavy, sharing hands |
| The governor was thought to be a faithful, married man |
| So when his wife was named the culprit and was rottin' in the can |
| I knew that I had been successful when I had thought to lay my plan |
