They found the first body in Brooklyn
Park Slope
Twenty-something broker
Swinging on some fancy silk rope

Two weeks later
Roof-top in the South Bronx
Melrose
No head, no feet, no hands
Black man, only God knows

Summertime in Manhattan
Joggers in Central Park
Handsome, wealthy surfer dude
Disemboweled after dark

Cool September morning in Queens
Jackson Heights
The broken down, retired boxer
One too many bad fights

In the place that never sleeps
An elusive predator
A distressed relative, sighs and weeps

Dead men all over his town
City on the edge
A weary cop, a puzzled frown

In life they had nothing in common
In morbid death…
Linked by a mysterious woman

A calling card at every grizzly scene
Intricate, hand-made, raven colored background
Lettered in red and bright, bold green

The young, the old, the rich, the poor
I give a little, they demand more

Men…

Love
