A Rondeau is a French form, 15 lines long, consisting of three stanzas: a quintet, a quatrain, and a sestet with a rhyme scheme as follows: aabba aabR aabbaR. Lines 9 and 15 are short - a refrain (R) consisting of a phrase taken from line one. The other lines are longer (but all of the same metrical length).
Pennywise
It hides in the dark
Looking for a mark
Disguised as your greatest fear
It can hear your heartbeat near
Hold open your palm, feel the spark
Sludge and stench provides a home
Vacant small streets it roams
Autumn leaves thick in the park
It hides in the dark
It changes its face
To four losers, a game, a race
Losers hunt silver
Hoping to find It, the killer
There is no fairytale arc
It hides in the dark
