Dark Sentiments 2012 – Day 25: Going Postal
Posted By Randy on October 25, 2012
I haven’t mentioned him in this year’s series, so I’m dedicating today’s bit o’ work to my old and recently promoted crime scene investigator Friend, Martin. I’ve spoken of him before as far back as Day 3 of DS 2010, and he’s the subject of my poem Crime Scene Man. I stand by my initial observation – A better man to draw a chalk line around you you’ll never meet.
So for you Martin, here’s …
Going Postal
By LFM
I killed a man the other day,
He’d just himself to blame.
First my patience emptied
Then my pistol did the same.
Disposing of his carcass
Was an easy thing to do.
So simple that you’ll wonder why
It never came to you.
I bubble wrapped and boxed him up
And sent him through the mail.
No surer way to lose a thing,
And never known to fail.
That’s why I always snicker when
I watch the news and see
Yet another one “went postal” –
It’s just not the same to me.
I didn't know you were so talented Randy! Good work!
very good Randy!
Once again I must say that I am pleased to be dragged out and dusted off, at least as a not forgotten memory, during this the season of ” Dark Sentiments ” . As a regular LFM reader, and perhaps to some minor degree a co conspirator, or at least as one who appreciates the finer aspects of a perfect crime and disposal, I have once again enjoyed your unique interpretation of the pleasures and displeasures derived from ALL things. We must create an opportunity to share a bottle and discuss methodologies. ( Consider this a standing invitation for you and the lovely Mrs LFM ) I do sincerely hope that I come to mind again when your are delivering signed copies of the first publication of the compendium of ” Dark Sentiments”.
All the best and keep posting
Martin M.
Martin, I believe a visit to discuss methodologies should not be too far off – particularly with the added thrill of tangling with Coyotes and Bears thrown into the mix! And as to that compendium, you’re in it, so you should have it.
Another one I absolutely loved and literally – and yes I mean literally, LOL.
I literally believe you Silvia!
