London, beside the Thames about 1860, destitute woman returning to a place of safety, a work house. Raining. Midnight.




Spring Heeled Jack (re-edit)

He is back

That  so called demon

"Spring Heeled Jack"

An unknown truth

an enigma

I hear the river flow

I see the Gaslights glow

glistening in the rain

my  skirts are long

hamper me,

so does the gin,

I sold my body to get that.

trying to get

to what I call home

I am alone

no one here

 

Then out of nowhere

He appears

"Spring Heeled Jack"

 

I am not alone anymore

I wish I was

 

What do I do now ?

 

I felt no pain....

 

END

A dark story that starts in Gothenburg, and ending on a backyard in London.
