[ribbet! ribbet!]

A source in the force said, "The police, based on intelligence information, were able to arrest a person practicing magic and sorcery by raiding his house in al-Musayyib district, north of Hillah, on Monday evening.
"Get the net over him, al-Murfi! Quick! Before he gets away! Or before he..."
[PRANG!]
[baaah!]

He added that the police transferred the accused to the competent authorities for investigation."
But then he disappeared...

Be not led astray! Okay, time to pray."

#2  There was a magician of Hillah
Whose story is kind of a Thriller,
Who danced to the Moon
From a desolate dune
And returned as a serial killer!
