I found a poem at a crime scene that seems more like a code than a poem. You know your way with obscure verses. Care to decode it with me?
Sure, toss the lines at me. I'll see if there's a hidden cipher or a dead‑eye rhyme hiding the truth. Just keep it short, no fluff.
Midnight rain on cracked street glass,
A shadow’s name in ink, silent and vast.
Streets whisper secrets, cold and stark,
Footsteps echo, but the truth leaves a mark.
Yeah, looks like the first letters spell something—M, A, S, F. Not a poem at all, a cipher. Maybe it’s pointing to a name or a code word. Let’s line it up and see if the vowels match any old rhyme or a street name.
Check the vowel patterns in each line—M A S F could be an acrostic, but maybe the second letters hide a key. Try mapping each vowel to its position and see if it spells a street or a known code name. It usually points to something you overlooked.
