An 8-year-old girl from Washington DC, Relisha Rudd, has been missing since late February/early March. Yesterday, police officers found the body of the man who abducted her. In the time since he kidnapped Relisha, he also killed his wife. We can only hope this little girl is found alive. Poem and article below.
Relisha Rudd could still be alive, says police chief
the ankh on his left
meant nothing when Relisha
did not come home / safe
slick tattoos traversed
bloodstream but not fingertips
he was not a god
murder. suicide.
the search is continuing
child long lost to signs
