Small beginnings
By Stephanie Sideways
It started with a worm
He loved the curling squirm
Squashed by his grip so firm
He felt no slight concern
('Its just a silly worm')
Next a butterfly
The legs first he would pry
Wing dust got in his eye
It didn't make him cry
( 'there there dear butterfly')
From oh so very young
The longing had begun
To see a life undone
A feeling matched by none
('But daddy, this is fun!')
A hefty psychologists fee
Was wasting dads Money
A disturbing thing to see
From a little boy of three
( 'but I'm cleverer than he')
That three year old soon grew
He hid his kills from view
And so nobody knew
The murderous ensue
( 'no one had a friggin clue')
The kills became more real
As more human they did feel
Rats and cats had great appeal
Tortured with a growing zeal
( 'My heart races with their squeal ')
The neighbours dog was hard
He was missed from the back yard
A bloody useless guard
He'd tricked him with his facade
('Stupid dog retard')
That angelic boy of ten
Killed again and again
Soon animals wouldn't 'work' the same
They could not voice their pain
( 'I will have to raise my game!' )
Author's Note:
This is my feeble attempt at being a bit sick! Lol had to make the story fit the rhyme a bit, I am a stickler for that! Hope it workedComments on "Small beginnings"

very nice, but i think if you were to tighten up your words slightly it would flow a little more freely and just roll off the tongue. i thought you would like to hear that rather than the usual. i dont like giving advise in that way because it can be a buzzkill for work that your very proud of. and also because im far from perfect and not a critic. im just a fan that noticed something to help you out stephanie. i love your poetry and right now your in my top three. i mean that with the kindest heart. grrr....the guilt!

Unusual to find a female serial killer, but sometimes that extra Y-chromosome does play havoc! Technically fine and only made me squirm slightly, cheers!
