The reporter road into town
Unsure of what he’d find
The town was not too big
Not too big for any mind
He saw the folks
They waved
Oh, they seem nice
Many people around would not think twice.
He was there to do his report
Because there had been word getting around
Of strange and bizarre things
Happening in this town
The word came in from anonymous sources
People who were scared
Of the kids of this land
Who often dissappeared
The Reporter left his car
And walked the town on foot
A car came driving up and screeched to a halt
The couple rolled down their window to relay the news
“You need to get out, it’s time to go.”
What do you mean why should I leave?
“This is not a normal place, it’s not safe to stay.”
Where is the danger in this town?
“We are leaving.
You should not stay here.
This is the Land of Longfellow and he will come for you.”
And after those last words, the couple rolled up their window and drove away.
The reporter walked on.
