W ell it’s all about murder,
H ow to do a foul deed.
A las there’s a burden—
T o be discovered; indeed.
I strive to lay false clues,
S uch a devious fellow!
I like ‘red herrings’ of many hues,
T aut strings on a strident cello.
A ll through the night, I write it out—
L onging to know what you think.
L ots of loose ends—to make you shout …
A re we near the end? I’m near the brink!
B ut never fear, all things made clear,
O n balance … it’s for you to decide.
U nder sufferance I’ve shed blood, sweat, tears,
T his is the end of my Hydro Homicide!

Bio: James tells us his Hydro saga is finally at an end and calls this piece a little bon mot to celebrate the end of the story.
