Never Piss off a Goddess

She wanted but a simple thing
to give to the soil connection
to be the Goddess of the land
She didn't ask for insurrection

There was no request for payment
it was a gift she offered there
the power of her heart and name
was what she longed to share

She didn't ask for city walls
she didn't cry for altars
she offered up a part of her
with no demand of temple or psalters

You didn't even consider
the gift she offered up that day
for what better gift from a Goddess
Then Her presence there to stay

You laughed and scoffed merrily
Turning away from Her greatest gift
and in that moment what came voluntarily
became the swiftest kick

The God Manannan raised up a storm
The likes of which none wished to see
it crashed and roared and pelted rain
and no more would You be

So swallowed up by wind and waves
Your just reward you won
I would not be the one who braves
of a Goddess to make fun

So now in dark Tech Duinn you reign
A punishment for your deed
to care for souls awaiting there
till to the underworld they're freed
