A calm river. Alongside, a frog croaks in time with the swirling wind. The sun was just starting to rise, shining a light into the darkened forest where no one dare go.

A family of deer approach the river cautiously. The momma deer perks her ears and listens closely as her two babies drink from the river. All done they leap across and vanish as quickly as they came.

The frog, having finished its morning call, hops across the rocks of the river to the other side. 

One rock. Two rocks. The wide-eyed face of a lifeless woman. Three rocks…

What a mess you're making
The neighbors want to know
Why I'm always shaking
Just like a fliver
