They called him the son of Satan
and god almighty he seemed like it.
He had the face of an alter boy
or a wholesome boy next door.
That’s what sixty women thought that
he caught in his net of torture and death.
He did unspeakably abominable things
to all those women for days and hours
before slowly slicing them all to death.
He got sentenced to many lifetimes
in prison when he should have
been given a death sentence.
An avenging prisoner, the brother
of one of the woman he savaged,
gave him the death sentence he
deserved by stabbing him to death
sixty times with a handmade shiv.

Age 80. Cancer survivor since 3 years ago. Work out 3 times a week. Ride my exercise bike 2 hours a day. Live a solo reclusive life. Retired a year ago from working with the elderly in a nonprofit. Started writing poetry a little over a year ago; most poems I write are fictional but some are not. Spiritual with a permanent spiritual experience. Write poems on many subjects. Always researching for many of my poems and because of my unquenchable thirst for knowledge. After reading and hearing about many near death experiences and death bed visions, I believe death is the ultimate awakening and the relocation of a lifetime. You may believe differently, but you have the right to be wrong -- I'm just messing with you. :-)
