@*^=~^¨¨¨¨ ~ ~ ~ ~ Beyond The Great Dam. ~ ~ ~ ~ ¨¨¨¨^~=^*@
£@*^=~^¨¨¨ ~ It Was Built In The Late Sixties. ~ ¨¨¨^~=^*@£
#£@*^=~^¨¨ ~ ~ ~ The Elves Came To Us Then. ~ ~ ~ ¨¨^~=^*@£#

£@*^=~^¨¨¨ They Were Very Manipulative, And We ¨¨¨^~=^*@£
@*^=~^¨¨¨¨ Came To Trust Them. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ Us ¨¨¨¨^~=^*@
*^=~^¨¨¨¨¨ Kids Would Play Down At The Water Even ¨¨¨¨¨^~=^*
@*^=~^¨¨¨¨ Though We Were Not Allowed. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ¨¨¨¨^~=^*@
£@*^=~^¨¨¨ ~ ~ Sometimes The Sluice Would Close ¨¨¨^~=^*@£
#£@*^=~^¨¨ Entirely, And The River At The Dams ¨¨^~=^*@£#
##£@*^=~^¨ Foot Would Dry Up, Revealing The Rocky ¨^~=^*@£##
#£@*^=~^¨¨ Water Garden That Had Been Hidden ¨¨^~=^*@£#
£@*^=~^¨¨¨ Beneath, And We Would Go There. ~ ~ ~ ~ ¨¨¨^~=^*@£
@*^=~^¨¨¨¨ ~ ~ ~ ~ Before The Dam Opened Again, ¨¨¨¨^~=^*@
*^=~^¨¨¨¨¨ There Would Be A Signal, But The Elves ¨¨¨¨¨^~=^*
@*^=~^¨¨¨¨ Would Make Us Not Hear It, And Suddenly ¨¨¨¨^~=^*@
£@*^=~^¨¨¨ We Would Find The Water Rising, Already ¨¨¨^~=^*@£
#£@*^=~^¨¨ At Our Knees. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ¨¨^~=^*@£#
