TOP STUDENT WORKJack the Ripper - the 19th century serial killer.By Connor C in Year 10

Oi Mate, pass the liquor.It’s Jack the Ripper,

Jack the rapper,Following you way before the dawn of Twitter.

I’m a human trigger warning,Through the night until the morning.When the light shines upon my crimes,You find it sick appalling.

An infamous notorious delinquent,There’s little more gory a thing thanLiving in Victorian England.

This is horrorcore,Beware if you ask for moreOr at late night you may find meKnocking on your door.

Not keen to leave until I’m knee deep in blood and gore.Your grieving family on their knees,Weeping scrubbing floors.

The police need a lead;They dunno what they’re looking for.

My poems are like the way I eat my meat,Bloody raw!
