    Poem Commentary

    Inspired by Mary Jane Kelly, rest in peace.


    1888:     The mutilated body of Mary Jane Kelly is found on the bed of her squalid room in the Spitalfields-Whitechapel area of London's East End. She is generally considered to be the fifth and final victim of the serial killer known as Jack the Ripper.

    In fact, Kelly -- a tall, amiable young woman who dabbled in prostitution to make ends meet -- may not have been the Ripper's final victim at all. Although five is the number accepted by most so-called "Ripperologists," no exact body count has ever been established. The killer's identity likewise remains unknown, defying even current research using the tools of modern forensic science

    The true philosopher and the true poet are one, and a beauty, which is truth, and a truth, which is beauty, is the aim of both.

    Ralph Waldo Emerson, American Poet (1803-1882)
