“Give me that”, - Carolyn pulled the files out of Ivy’s hands.
“What?”
“I’ll save you some time, Detective”.

Sorry for overstepping the 4-post limit. If the moderator lets me, I'll fix the mistake.

Judges,

I started thinking about the judging and I realized I never mentioned about it. Judging will be grading by numbers. 100 being the highest, 0 being the lowest. The competition has officially started, and we've already got one post. I hope to see more soon!

For attention of Prince of Shangri-La



'' To Althea

I have a little hobby. Come, sit, I'll tell you what;
it's just a little pastime, I think you'll agree too.
Just, would you like a cuppa? It comes so piping hot,
we'll warm our hands upon the mug and gas about who's who.
.
That's right, just you get comfy; - I see you've drunk the lot!
Well, now I'll let you in on my secret, dark habit.
I lure in unsuspecting young people, to this spot;
this room has seen some beauties, I've skinned them like a rabbit.
.
You look a little puzzled. There really is no need.
I'll explain what is happening; the drug was in your cup!
you'll find it hard to move now; don't pay it any heed;
that's just to make it easy for me to truss you up.
.
Now, dear, I cannot hear you; - I know it's hard to speak,
so don't know why you're trying, - relax and let me work.
My hobby's so absorbing, the pow'r-rush makes me squeak;
The high anticipation; - the smell of blood and murk...
.
You see me lay the plastic; you watch with frightened eyes;
I pick out nice clean scalpels, you roll your head and strain;
I cut some juicy slices of flesh out from your thighs,
and pop them in the frypan, then cut and come again.
.
Oh dear, you've only fainted! That will not do! Not fair!
That spoils the whole effect, wake up! I need to see your pain!
- Dear me, they keep on dying; I'll have to take more care.
I don't know why it happens. Each one I've tried in vain... ''

My entry is still forthcoming. I have completed a first draft and am still revising and editing.

Another superb entry from Cekuray. I love the sinister poetry!

Night Queen, sinister as in opposed to dexter poetry? Although, "I have a little hobby" may be both.
I do like it indeed.
