The Perfidious Patrick

The found poem was taken from Paragraph 3 – Paragraph 29 in the short story Lamb to the Slaughter,  by Roald Dahl.  My poem shows a man versus man conflict between Mary, the protagonist, and her husband. In the part of story I included in my poem, the rising action, the author described the dialogues and actions between the two characters, showing the different mood of them, and how do they slowly build up the storyline to the inciting incident, where Patrick tells Mary that he is going to leave her. After the rising action, Mary uses a lamb to kill Patrick by hitting his back of the head, and uses her superb acting technique and anti-detect consciousness to evade her responsibility of murdering, and the whole story ends by a sentence of description about Mary giggling. Lastly, I think we should totally avoid Mary’s action in real live. Instead, we should protect our rights and properties by legal ways.
