Another old poem called "The Detective" (personally it reminds me of clue)
His hand fell flat on the table,
A pen still clutched in his fingers.
The cry of the maid lingered, in his long dead ears.
So it was really happening, he was truly gone.
The pen felt cold in his dead white hand,
And a shiver ran through his immobile body.
Who had left that blasted window open?
His study had never been drafty before.
Someone had tracked mud across his prized velvet carpet.
The room began to fill,
With family, and friends alike.
And the cold thought occurred to him,
As he glanced around the room,
His eyes gleaming with hatred.
“One of you, is a murder.”
