When the police shot the middle-aged man
they said he was crazy
just another unstable male out of control
not taking his medication
as two were killed plus him three survived
his acts not contrived!
But a psychologist was interested in the case
certain this was not the fact
suspicious with the urgency to close the files
risking his reputation and life
to search why they wanted no investigation
filled him with consternation!
On his own without any official permission
decided he had to dig deep
discovering there were far more incidents
each quickly dispatched
similar circumstances but females as well
on this fact did dwell!
Few he spoke to would divulge anything
a deep fear did prevail
an uneasiness grew sinister implications
men in dark suits everywhere
was he beginning to lose his own mind
now becoming intertwined!
Not being an investigator was hampered
creating himself more danger
with no real proof until someone spoke
informing they knew of a plot
and deep underground covert complicity
a top-secret conspiracy!
He was a scientist working on the project
rumoured to be involving
the military anon existent majestic twelve
soon after before corroboration
the contact was found dead in his own bed
suicide the newspapers said!
That sense of doom and dread struck him
the man had concluded
it was to enhance the activity of the brain
increasing power and strength
but project abandoned the official word
now he knew this was absurd!
For him it soon was the end of the road
his car in a police report
had swerved off a main road at speed
nobody else it seems involved
more likely eliminated we can conclude
dark elements his life pursued!
He had meddled in a secret that had to be kept!
Or is this just pure speculation?
