he came to me
three times at night
we bore a child
in stark moonlight
we chanted loud
we spoke forth proud
she came to us
upon a cloud
her blackened clothes
with every stitch
spoke of her origin
she was a cosmic witch
her raven hair
shone with the moon
she spoke of
evil, impending doom
your child, she said
will haunt your dreams
for she is not quite what she seems
she is a devil in disguise
don't be fooled by innocent eyes
she will cause harm to all who's near
but if you listen, you need not fear
just heed my warning, my advice
you must make the ultimate sacrifice
draw a circle on the grassy floor
and inside it lay what you did bore
make an offering unto the grey
and wait for the wolves to take her away
