Villanelle Villainy

I killed a Man
Boiled up his wife
Plucked out my fork
Sharpened my knife

Sliced off a cut
Of thick Rich Meat

The taste
Sublime!
It can’t be beat.

I must confess
I ate the teats

Sucked blood
and bones
through leaner weeks

The brains
Quite Strange
But nice with leeks

Her two fried Eggs
On toasted cheeks
