Ancient and elder,
Old-fashioned yet new.
A tiny new fawn,
Alaid in the dew.
Heavy yet silent,
Armed and aware.
A whistle, a weapon
Was shot through the air.
Lost and forgotten,
Left in the dirt.
That little new fawn,
Lay painfully hurt.
No one remembers
The story of hymn.
All that is known,
That fawn could not swim.
