Mar 2014
The scene takes place in Portland, Maine
Don’t be surprised in what will remain
Our story begins at a very sophisticated affair
Where there is an event beware
Everyone was having conversations with one another
However over in the corner two gentlemen in argument are displeased
Something is about to released
It was Jeffrey Osborne, an Oil Tycoon and his business partner
They were in a deep discussion
Osborne abruptly dashes off
Osborne is scene walking to his car and is stabbed in the back
The killer quickly moved after the attack
Suddenly screams could be heard from the street
Now it will be justice on the beat
But the question is what started it all?
Osborne was planning on selling his part of the business without his business partner’s consent
The business partner was mad with greed and felt Osborne had no right to proceed
Matters just continued to get worse
All eyes on how much of the fortune that was worth
I searched for clues myself
I was determined not to wait for somebody else
There was evidence on the floor with an address
There was someone else who actually caused this distress
It was Osborne’s mistress more or less
If anybody deserved the fortune cut, it was her, Theresa Slaughter
Slaughter helped make Osborne who he was
At least that is what she thought
Yet I know who killed Osborne and I had my sought
I stated to Slaughter you would have gotten away with it, but you knew Osborne didn’t want to have anything to do with you
So you killed him with having an alibi just to draw attention from your true motive
By then the Police arrived and Slaughter was taken away
A ****** carefully solved on this day.
The true ****** seen through the eyes of the poet
