Analysis of Mr. Jingle Man



Jingle, jingle, jingle, the sound of a key
Footsteps approach and the children are ready to flee
Hands and legs in position ready to run away
Eyes focused on the door, afraid to stray
A knife comes into view along with the sound of a plea
An outcast who doesn’t care whether or not he’s free
Just the thought of death makes the children snotty
The jingle man doesn’t move much to the children’s dismay
Jingle, jingle, jingle
One victim and then another, he screams with glee!
The remaining children aren’t at ease
The fear that they may next make them run straight through the doorway
However, the Jingle Man blocks their way
Then he cuts and kills as the children scream “Don’t please!”
Jingle, jingle, jingle
