Pennsylvania Pole Saw Massacre
written by: Kenneth Vincent Walker
A pole saw is intended
To lop limbs from trees,
Deciduous trees of plenty,
That cannot be physically
Reached manually. A killer
Lurks amongst tall weeds
In fields of dense brush,
In bleak darkened woods,
Searching for ample limbs
To sever with a clean cut.
The Pole Saw Killer has an
Affinity for blood, hiding
Behind a mask displaying
A maple leaf and sporting
Dried bloody leather gloves,
Stained, smelling of death;
Highly motivated, waiting
Patiently, with a quivering
Finger on the trigger. Oh,
That grinding, that whining
Sound and those screams.
