I dreamt of Bob, a great grey rock
born of earth and fire.
To him I gave my every thought
and all of my desire.
He promised me a rocky castle
high atop a granite dome
where none would come to interrupt
the bliss within our mountain home
He built it strong, he built it grand
but as he laid the final stone
a jealous god unleashed his wrath
and suddenly I was alone
Where Bob had stood, now only smoke
and fire remained —
My love lay shattered —
Scattered shards —
Our love, once solid
torn apart
Then vengeance cried
and from my hooves
a devastating spell was cast;
the god, and all for miles around
were decimated by m
