Whitechapel
Jack-Pudding
by Daniel
G.
Snethen
Twenty-two years before the Ripper,
a jack-pudding terrorized the impoverished
Whitechapel District of London.
Famous for his impressive features
of gastronomic indulgences,
he devoured yard after yard
of undercooked blood sausages.
When Scotland Yard found
the dead whores of Whitechapel,
each had been eviscerated.
