The capital H suggests you're thinking of the orange monster that's just left the Whi-- I mean, the green monster that's recently been in the Avenger's films. For me however I'm put in mind of abandoned oil tankers and ships left dying at sea.

The Hulk
The Hulk is a rusting ship, lying dying in a lake
It must have been built there for there’s no way
It could have sailed in unless the water level were once so high
It would have drowned the world around us.

Greg - yes, that was what I'd intended. But you know I never take offense when the prompt takes you somewhere I hadn't intended or thought of :)

That's quite the picture you've painted in just four lines. Seems like a world I wouldn't mind investigating further.
