Delusions of grandeur, you say?

There was once a great mountain,
It said, “I am mountainous.”
And The Echo echoed,
“Mountainous, mountainous.”

And the next day the mountain
Said, “I am mountainous.”
And The Echo echoed,
“Mountainous, mountainous.”

And the next day the mountain
Said, “I am mountainous.”
The Echo played a prank,
“You are a conceited hill!”

And the mountain didn’t speak,
Rain fell all over it,
And The Echo cried, too,
“Mountainous! Mountainous!”

But the mountain didn’t speak,
It eroded and eroded,
It is now just a hill,
And The Echo is gone.

Are you sure I'm deluded? (100)
