4.6 - Getting Away With Murder
I didn't want to kill her.
I never got a choice.
I need the reputation,
Become «one of the boys»
She was the perfect victim.
So innocent, so down.
A solitary stranger.
A long way out of town.
A suicide? A hanging?
Strangled to death? That's good.
A kill to fill the papers,
With violence and blood.
An accident, and fatal.
A berserk mince machine,
Or falling through a mirror
With cut-throat glass. Obscene!
A serious serial killer
Leaves DNA in place,
A steak knife in her liver,
And clues to solve the case.
Red-handed or confession,
Each killer pays in time.
Who gets away with murder?
A writer, selling crime.
