I recently read an article on a topic that I am sure you will find interesting (the article was written by Raymond Rowe for the journal Drug Discovery Today).
It is about grues, a 'grue' being a "comically sadistic and grisly little poem of four lines". They are also called "Little Willies" after the main character who appears in them.
Here are a couple to give you an idea
Willie poisoned his father's tea
Father died in agony
Mother looked extrememly vexed
'Really Will' ,she said, 'What next?'
Little Will, calm and placid
Boiled his ma in nitric acid
Now mother dear is just a plastic
Transparent, clear; but non-elastic.

These are taken from a book, which contains a lot more grues if you're interested
