The Mechanic

The contract was signed, an agreement made
The suitcase was opened, the money paid
It had been discussed, the job to be done
There would be no mistakes, he had checked his gun
He had charged plenty, she was willing to pay
Patiently awaiting, her husbands last day
Photographs had been passed, information shared
He'd been followed for a week, nothing was spared
She wanted him dead, insurance she'd get
More than enough, to pay her debt
She ran it up, he was unaware
Now she was desperate, she didn't care
The mechanic was ready, with the tools of his trade
He would fix the problem, her debt would be repaid
In the works car lot, he waited totally relaxed
Her husband drew up and slowly he parked
The husband stepped out, the mechanic took aim
Pulled the trigger gently, the victim felt no pain
He slumped to the ground, a single bullet to the head
The mechanic phoned his client, to say her husband was dead
She listened quietly, said thank you, goodbye
Put down the phone and started to cry
Not tears of sorrow, but happiness galore
The perfect crime? the police knock on her door

Great rhyme scheme. I love the analogy of the mechanic. I guess I hadn't thought of it that way before. You've got a great mind. Don't waste it.
Love,
