Has slept both deep and long
Under Djidbijidbdi
In her cave of frozen song
The guardians sense her stirring
In this eerie place of awe
Behind the orange cliffs
Blood-stained in ancient war
Cousin to the Woggle
The creator of the world
The stirring Brown Snake Goddess
Will soon become uncurled
The frozen songs are thawing
And ringing into space
Like the Ride of the Valkyries
As she prepares to leave this place
Djidbidjibdi known to the white man as Mount Brockman is a place of terrible and ancient power. There beneath the blood stained orange cliffs lies Dabde the powerful Brown Snake spirit sleeping since the dream-time. Sleeping since the songs of the void froze into matter with the creation of the world. Dabde the destroyer, cousin to the greater Woggle, the Rainbow Serpent who created the world. Guarded by the ancients who alone know that when she wakes she will destroy the world with lightning and flooding rain. We the white-man also sense her power. It radiates out from the massive Uranium deposit lying under the mountain. Wealth and power there for the taking but for the guardians. You must not disturb the mountain! But Dabde is stirring. As the climate warms and the ancient songs begin to thaw increasingly massive cyclones lash the ancient landscape with lightning and flooding rain. A small taste of things to come should we fail to heed the warnings.
