I was looking through some of my stuff and I found this. It is a poem that I wrote for English class in Grade 11 ( a heck of a long time ago) ….anyways the assignment was to take a book, movie, or episode of a show and write a poem that tells the plot ( yes I know pretty lame, but it was an assignment that was designed by a fellow student and friend of mine… so I am not going to bash it ) …and I picked the Criminal Minds episode called "Compulsion" in Season 1.
… I know that the science student that they talk to is called Jeremy ( not Ned) and that in the end Hotch shoots Clara in the leg, but I was too lazy to find things that rhymed… so I changed it….I mean nobody was really going to know anyways….it is not like I was going to lose marks because it was not 100 correct.
Agent Hotchner shows a video to his team
Of a college student burning in his dorm
Of course this isn't a horrible dream
And the crime is definitely not of the norm
For the unsub couldn't see the victims burn
And a serial arsonist wouldn't just light a fire and walk away
So what from this can the profilers learn
To prevent another fire from being set today?
A hotline is set up to hear from the bad guy
In hopes that he will speak out
And tell everyone how and why
And what the fire on the 3rd floor was all about
But before that happens another fire is set
And a professor is pronounced dead
The profilers need all the help they can get
So they ask for advice form a chem student named Ned
Ned's partner Clara says that there's a cocktail that will light itself on fire
Potassium, Sulfur, Sugar, Sugar, Sugar
She says that's what the unsub might desire
Potassium, Sulfur, Sugar, Sugar, Sugar
The hotline reveals it might be religious
And that is it all an act from God
But perhaps it might even be fictitious
For doesn't this all sound a little bit odd?
Or maybe it has to do with OCD
Says the brillant Dr. Reid
For everything is being done in three
And the compulsions make the person seem freed
Then it must be Clara they all decide
For she does fit the profile, now that they have thought about it
But Hotchner warns that persuasion can not be tired
For she is not actually in control of it
For when 3 threes show up in a row
Clara must set everyone free
And even if she wanted to, she could not say no
For she thinks God told her , you see
So when Hotchner catches her setting another fire
He shoots her in the arm
For he knows that her brain can not rewire
And it was the only way to make her stop before she caused more harm
I am not a poetry writer… so I know that it is not that good.. But I thought that I might as well post is and see what people think
Please Review
