Damn you Mike and Scott, Who the Hell do you think you are? You've left us without a thought, And we loved you from afar. Your poetry was a bit of good, Your wit was a trace more than great. I miss you both from the neighborhood, I know God has opened his gate. I defined myself by your broken lines, You tried to meet my ripostes, To compose, exquisite (it seems repines), Yet, I know you both were toast. Mike and Scott. You are my brothers, and I love you. Rest in peace. God, I miss you and love you. |

How thoughtful that you come today, in memory, and in glory to those who've gone before us. You laid the wreath down well, Sir. Don't be a stranger, y'hear? |

You dear peg-legged scalawag... I can't thank you enough for this! I know how deeply Toe felt Deer's death... and I know how much it hurts to be left behind. Thank you for giving them the scolding they so richly deserve. Love to you and the lovely Lorelei! ![]() |

When I think of synergy, I think of what the three of you created - the fun, the laughter, the insults... and the strong foundation of love and respect you had for each other and your poetic wars. Three wonderful poets, three delightful gentlemen - together they romped across these blue pages, wore Nan's erasers to mere nubs - and won the hearts of everyone. I miss Deer, I miss Toe - and I miss the most amazing camaraderie I've ever witnessed. I'm grateful to LJA for finding this place, Toe for inviting me along - and Deer for being the missing piece of the puzzle. (And I can just imagine the claim he'd make of what my sweet Toe was missing. LOL) All three will be forever in my heart. Adding this to my library. |
