As dusk befalls the day and the air begins to cool
The forest comes alive, subdued beneath my rule
Humidity condenses revealing my form
Shimmering in moonlight, my shape a misty storm
Curious creatures humans are; so fragile their existence
They walk alone through the unknown, so foolishly persistent
"My pets" I muse as I watch them wander aimlessly
Oh how the darkness could consume you completely
As the murmurs of the forest are overcome by the chatter of community
Hear my words as you walk at night
Keep a keen ear towards the periphery
Listen close, stay near and heed
For this domain belongs to me
While you stay within my trees
I shall provide your earthly needs
Unto you I offer thus:
Safety, shelter, food, and trust
Should your endurance turn to lust
All you've built shall turn to rust
Disturbing creatures humans are
Ravenous and hungry
Their limitless consumption has worn out my generosity
Ungrateful things these fleshy bugs
It seems they must be taught
Gluttons must repay their debt lest their souls be rendered naught
As the chatter of the forest is overcome by the bustle of society
Hear my words as you walk at night
Keep a keen ear towards the periphery
Listen close, stay near and heed
For this domain belongs to me
While you stay within my trees
I shall provide your earthly needs
Unto you I offer thus:
Safety, shelter, food, and trust
Should your endurance turn to lust
All you've built shall turn to rust
As the bustle of the forest is overcome by the screams of humanity
Hear my words as you run this night
You shall not cross the periphery
