Sherlock Holmes Solves Black Sheep Mystery

This was a fun little piece I made my freshman year. The point of it was to imagine how someone as deductive as Sherlock Holmes would be able to pick apart a nursery rhyme, and this was the result.

Baa, baa, black sheep, Have you any wool? Yes sir, yes sir, Three bags full; One for the master, And one for the dame, And one for the little boys Who lives down the lane.

POV Sherlock Holmes: Something suspicious is going on here. Why is the wool in bags? Ill tell you why. Because wool is white. Cocaine is white. Cocaine is also put in bags. NOW, I know what youre saying, youre saying well Mr. Holmes, the wool simply cannot be white because said [Link] black!

Well, keen observation, Ill give you that, but you failed to realize that the black sheep is simply a cover up, a nickname, a metaphor if you will for the black market. The master, the dame, and ever so sadly the little boys, shall be brought to justice for being in possession of an illegal narcotic. Case closed. Elementary, dear Watson.
