Q is for Quartz
Will nothing content this grumpy dwarf?
Certainly not taking over blogs monthly
He won’t take death in Fairest lying down
Even if he gets backlash from a sleeping curse
Whammied out of the best intentions
This is what you get for listening to kobolds
Taking in surrogate human daughters
You’ve had just about enough Of Cuckoo Clocks and Crystal Coffins
Even if it’s a story of your own
You lead your brothers away from your kind’s greed
Fool dwarves, fool goblins, fighting over gold
They underestimate the beauty and value of a quartz crystal
Human mages are not so so short-sighted.
You find a mountain with plenty of your namestone
You didn’t realize it was occupied by a dragon
You and your brothers head to the dubious safety
Of a cottage in a Forest of Tears
Trying endure garden gnomes as neighbors
Wondering how long Garnet can take the stress
Curses and trouble have a way of finding your door
You recognize some of your own confusion
You desire to do something, to keep moving
In the weary beauty of her face
No, you should have taken in that human princess
She’ll break your heart the way humans always do
You shouldn’t have listened to kobolds either
Too bad you’re too stubborn to listen to yourself.
