Ben relished beating up kids,
The class bully of our school.
After graduation he joined
The Marines and learned he
Had a knack for killing people.
He savored the slaughters.
Home on leave, he said he
He had reenlisted for more

Tours of savage, bloody wars.
By the way his eyes turned
Psycho as he talked of his kills,
I sensed a serial killer in the
Making, and hope he reelists
For life to save the lives of
Easy slaughters in our city.
