Sense Sonnet - Tickler

 Chocoholic Slasher!

Mother's boy, Norman Bates, did be,

In "Psycho" film, a slasher type.

In the tub, victim bled bloody

With a lot of Hollywood hype.

Since the film was in black and white,

Director Alfred Hitchcock chose

To use for blood's visual fright,

Bosco chocolate syrup in flows,

Because the syrup looked more real

Than normal too light red blood fake.

This slashing historic big deal,

All the draining "real blood" did make.

I could get slashing in my head,

If chocolate syrup be bled.
