Detective Story Poem by Ima Ryma

1 a.m. - I noted the time,
This detective cop was called to
Investigate a murder crime.
That's the job that I'm paid to do.
1 a.m. - arrived at crime scene,
Found the victim dead on the floor,
Bullet hole in forehead between
The eyes, kind of hard to ignore.
1 a.m. - searched the home, but found
Nobody else, so went outside.
A gun was laying on the ground,
Possibly how the victim died.

1 a.m. - did dawn on this cop,
For some reason my watch did stop.
