Dinochihua
Dinochihua
Twas gloomy by the gray crag
The light shining was dwindling
A strocal vercan began to brag
A strong fire was kindling
Dinochihua was ackbarring
While the great fire was brewing
The crag was weakening and charring
Beswizzeled, he is a queuing
The Bunmu is leaygoping
Hearing the cutarnivorous cry
Bunmu began to go hoping
Dinochihua was now nigh
Bam! The crag began to crumble
Alas, Bunmu was not yet here
Vercan was nowhere near humble
Dinochihua was struck with fear
The argzy Bunmu now appeared
Vercan nawlysed, when it caught sight
Dinochihua was ‘ready revered
Vercan soon lost all of his might
Twas gloomy by the gray crag
The light shining was dwindling
A strocal vercan began to brag
A strong fire was kindling
