"My Old Friend Jack"

"My Old friend Jack"...a dark limerick by Night.2012

I've come to see my old friend Jack...

clever boy is he.

Prim and proper, for he's a doctor

in high society.

It's been so long since I've walked

these streets of cobblestone.

Beware the Ripper, you night time nipper

and don't be caught alone.

I've come to see my old friend Jack...

clever boy is he.

Thank you and may God bless...Night.2012

i like this poem...and am fascinated by Jack the Ripper...as are my students...i have them do a research paper on Jack the Ripper...defending different notions as to who the real Ripper was...or if it was the Masons protecting the prince etc.


very interesting character, but as you said, quite dark.

...in this piece, it's Jack himself narrating, leaving a clue about his identity...pretty cool huh...:)
