His hands are not his own.

A docile puppet controlled by a stranger’s venomous voice 

He traverses and carves through London’s suffocating fog, 

A phantom feasting on lascivious intentions 

His instructions are given in a whisper 

A steady hum builds to an unstoppable roar 

His thoughts are serrated by evil

And sharpened with vigilance, relentlessly slicing disdain into his victims 

He follows a hypnotic melody, a song without a tune, and a cold command echoes in the gaslit London streets

His inner voice screams and fights the urge to continue, but his body is subject to obey

A cage of muscle and bone that no longer belongs to him

Even in the silence 

His gruesome artistry yells out clues 

But it’s too futile to solve 

He wakes with relief and thrives in the punishment he inflicts 

On the ones who revel in iniquity

His true self is host to a stranger’s killing instruments

He has recollections that aren’t his 

It keeps reminding him that these deadly hands are not his 

Trust and rapport established 

But it’s a facade for him to deliver damage 

His hands are not his own

Blades covered in plasma have victims kiss the filthy streets 

There is nobody to trust

So, lament if you must 

But he remains an infamous architect of final silence

“From Hell” (2001). This is a decent and haunting film directed by the Hughes Brothers that tells the story of British Inspector Frederick Abberline’s (Johnny Depp) investigation and hunt for the serial killer “Jack the Ripper”.
