Trinity Lobo Poetry

David Berkowitz

July 29th,1976
two young girls walking on the street
chatting happily in the new york alley
factory smog just passing by
Suddenly in front of them
stands a hefty man who
gives them a smile
" Evening Ladies"
This passerby wishes you
a goody night
Releived the ladies give a sigh
and look up at the heavens high
A moments glance
and then back to earth
just to see the blood spill from their skirts
Everything just went so fast
The women never heard the blast
and as they fell down to the ground
They saw the man with the smile in front
with a gun pointed to their injured cunts

Another crime
Another Killing
joining the list in the line of shootings
where murder is like a petty job
and the cops out there
they really dont care
not much attention was paid to this case
and it looked like it would eventually
gather dust in some file base

October 23, 1976
A couple sitting in a local bar
Pop! comes the gunman
firing from the window
and sending them to gods promised land
and a month goes by
the gunman gives his third show
Wounding two women with his
metal mate
maybe sending them to heavens gate
Another month goes by
two more die as angels cry
As investigations proceed
giving the cops their clue
that the shootings of all the deceased
but had only one lead
and as it dawned upon them
they were dealing with a man-eater
this man-eater never ate
he only killed people

New York was captured in fear
Doors were closed
and windows shut
people moved out of home
only in times when the need was dear
Every stranger was looked at with suspicion
but i guess there was good reason
this fear passed within a year
only to be aroused by time dear
A pair sitting in a chevrolette
was broken up by an array of bullets
The man lived .., the lady died
INSTANTLY
Next a girl gets shot in the face in a new york alley
thats victim number two
But as the story goes, there,s an addition
and the killer leaves a note
" I am the son of sam ... I love to hunt
I stroll around the streets for tasty meat "
As some time passed by
another murder took place
The man lived ... the woman INSTANTLY
died
But as miracles do occur
the witness identified the car
This helped the cops
to locate the hidden star
The news of this madman's capture
spread wide and really very far
As the cops revaled his name
" David Berkowitz"
you've gained some fame
confessing to the cops
you said a dog was your pop
Voices echoed in your head
and demons handled your body
designated a pyschological and delusional
schizophrenic
which turned you into a gun raving maniac
you plead insanity
but the court sided humanity
they got you in for life

Now you sit in a grey dusty cell
using water inplace of gel
we hope theres change in your hardened soul
but if theres none
It'll gladden my(poet's) soul
