The Craigslist Killer V 2 Poem by Ramona Thompson

Note-Dark Fiction Only!

Why won't they listen?
Why do they refuse to hear the truth?
They've got the wrong man
Never even looked at anyone else
They just zeroed right on in
Right on in on an innocent man
And now because of that fatal error
A guilty man still roams free to take more lives

A poison heart and soul
A monster hiding
Underneath ordinary human flesh
He is still out there
Posting, watching, waiting
Mouth watering
Arranging his next wicked meeting with an unsuspecting victim

The man's girlfriend is right
Her lover harmed no one
He never has or would
Not phyically anyway
He did cheat
He was at the same hotel
In the wrong place
At the wrong time
He had sex with the victim, but that was all
He did't kill her

I'm sorry, but I had to speak up
I had to stop this maddness
I may not love my husband anymore
But I'll be darned if I will let someone else take the credit for his work
He deserves better than that
He deserves to have his life long dream of being a famous serial killer come true
You would think the same if it were someone in your most intimate family
You know that is true and so do I

So in closing I want to ask this and just this
Give credit where credit is due
Do not rob a good man of his one life's ambition
Arrest him
Bring him in and make him face his crime
We have an agent, a book and movie deal all lined up
Now all we need to complete our dream is you to let him add just a few more names before you nab him
Come on now
Is it really too much to ask?

We don't think so!
