This poem is in the Sonnet format - it allows for more detail than my preferred Rhyku and sometimes details provide a clearer and more comprehensive picture. Whether the Shakespearean Lord and Lady Macbeth or their aspiring, conspiring and perspiring modern day counterparts, "if you do the crime, you will do the time" sooner or later and the retribution by the law and fate will occur on the behalf of victims as so aptly captured in "The Tell-Tale Heart" by Edgar Allan Poe. As in a masterpiece, the focus is only on the colourful primary protagonists but careful inspection of the secondary hues paints the whole picture.
