I decided I wanted to try out writing a nursery rhyme, but a creepy one.
So I'm not sure if I like it or not. You tell me.

Beware the man in the black cloak.
He who comes and goes like the smoke,
Steals you little ‘uns out past sundown,
And hides you outside of the town.

If you go out past the suns reign,
Then you shall feel the Dark One’s pain.
If you’re seen past nine of the clock,
His shroud with end your little walk.

Beware the man in the black cloak.
He who comes and goes like the smoke,
Steals you little ‘uns out past sundown,
And hides you outside of the town.

So next time you want to leave late,
Remember you’ll be found under slate.
And if you’re caught out past curfew,
You’ll be buried under the morning dew.

Beware the man in the black cloak.
He who comes and goes like the smoke,
Steals you little ‘uns out past sundown,
And hides you outside of the town.
And puts you to rest outside the town.
