How To Get Away With Murder by ~machinerage299:iconmachinerage299:



How To Get Away With Murder

Choose a victim no-one knows,
Who never shall be missed,
In case some evidence should show
That fateful death had kiss’d.

Be unrelenting, unforgiving,
Never show a qualm
For second thoughts can magnify
When blood spills on your palm.

Bury the body far away
It never shall be found
For if it shows, they’ll come for you,
Your hands behind you bound;

And off to prison you shall sail
Forever shall you stay
Your face and skin a ghostly pale,
Remember me this day.

The day I told you what to do,
In the depths of foggy night…
If you wish to kill a man,
You’ve got to do it right.

This was actually an assignment for english class, but I decided it was good enough to put onto the interwebs.

Inspired by Poe, I guess... this is the sort of thing he'd write, except not as awesome. I'd like to think I'm not as emo as Poe, though.

You tied a tourniquet on his NECK?!?!?

Haha. XD It is quite similar to Poe! That's probably why I grinned like a sick little devil. Good work, all the same.

I like it!
I;m a bit late with this but, for the last stanza,
You´ve got to do it right
It doesn´t neccasarily match the rest of the poem(in my head), but it adds a certain feeling to it.

Thanks for the fave, Molly. About your comment: I realize that one of the lines in the last stanza has one too many syllables, but I don't think that is quite what you're talking about. What do you mean, when you say it doesn't necessarily match the rests of the poem?
