Crimes so heinous
have made you famous
While your victims lie
deep in the dirt
Your name is remembered
with murder it is tempered
Those left behind in a life
drowned with hurt
Your face is well known
a killer repeatedly shown
The victims in photographs
quietly inert

Unbelievable that people think it’s ok to just change a whole family for the rest of their lives. There is no closure…that word is bs

Funny, Kait, I just wrote a bit about serial killers in my post. I used to study them obsessively. Ramirez was abused by his mother, if I recall, and targeted women that resembled her. There’s a mass murder in my area right now – the killer just confessed. It blows me away how insensitive people and news outlets are to the victims. They are currently digging human remains of four young men, as people call them drug addicts, attempt to dig up any info from Facebook, and seem to have no hearts for the pain that these four families are enduring. The victims are afterthoughts to the gore, right? Hope you are well, lovely one!

It’s tragic but we glorify the horror. Just about everyone will know a serial killers’ name but even if you mention a victims’ name they have no clue. I’ve always been fascinated by the violent criminal/sexual mind, my criminal degree was awesome as I could take Psych A and B and Abnormal Psych – a guide to the criminally insane, resilient and resistant. Ricky was influenced by his uncle who killed his wife (Ricky’s aunt) in front of him. Also ex war vet who showed him pictures of rape and beheadings etc from his tours. Disastrous but others grow up in same or worse states and don’t become a Ricky…It’s both nurture and nature required for cataclysms! Peace, love n light, i trust you are well and happy! 😀
