Was looking for peanuts,
Some money here called steem.
`cause dad told me of spending cuts,
thought this must be a „dreem“.

Saw a whale so great ‚n‘ white,
Submerged in a wall of steem.
He doesn’t seem to be finite,
Engulfed in beauty and a golden gleam.

Being one of them a delight,
No worries nor fear.
Oh, getting there a hard fight,
The whale songs can’t you hear?

As they whisper through the night,
Flying straight through space and time.
Foretelling you a future so warm and bright,
With steemit your words a worth a dime.

As they guide you through their realm,
You’ll see colors never seen.
Be warned to wear a helm,
As FIAT yells „Yo crypto, we’re coming clean!“.

A massive fight,
Blood fills the floor.
You think „this can’t be right“,
„let me out, where is the door?“.

A blue figure with an „f“ for his face,
Claims to have the key.
Claims to be the master race,
But tells: “your thoughts ain’t worth a pea.“.

As you neglect to walk his way,
He lets out an massive roar.
Thinking „this ain’t my day“,
You found another door.

The whale inmidst of his fight,
Created a door made of solid light.
As the blue figure turns out to be an evil knight,
Claims to have the power, to slay whole worlds with his might.

As you flee towards the exit,
You find a giant peanut laying on the ground.
The whale wounded, suddenly checks it,
But he’s already dying on a mound.

You can’t flee now!
You have to fight!
As the beasts get ready for their final blow,
You fling the nut to the whale and see how they unite.

A mighty blast,
An energy so pure.
The Whale turned into an Elephant quite fast,
Now he’ll knock them out for sure.

As you leave through the door,
knowing everything will be alright.
A light burns inside you so pure,
You wake up in midst of the night.

Was this just dream,
Was nothing of it quite true?
What about Steem?
Well, that’s up to you!
