Analysis of Psychotic Chef

JESUS BETANCOURT 1955 (New York)



Felt strange as we entered hibachi restaurant
Table vacancies were plenty
Recommended to celebrate birthday of my aunt
Parking lot was suspiciously empty

Knife tossing chef approached our table
Disturbing smile promised unexpected treat
Blood splattered apron showed we were unable
To escape cleaver swinging at every seat
