He's dead Jim
A long, long time ago…
I can still remember
When homicidal computers used to make me smile.
And I knew if I had my chance
That I could make the Overlords dance
And, maybe, the Overmind wouldn’t adsorb them for a while.
But March 19 made me shiver
With wireless message I’d deliver.
Bad news on the doorstep;
I couldn’t take one more step.
I can’t remember if I cried
When I read that he had died
But something touched me deep inside
The day the Arthur C. Clarke died.

He's dead Jim
Long, long time ago
I can still remember when,
red dragons used to make me smile.
And I knew if I had my chance
that I could make those multisided dice dance,
and maybe I wouldn’t have to make a saving throw for a while.
But, March 4th would make me shiver,
with each hit roll I deliver,
bad news from the dungeon master,
I couldn’t take one more step,
I can’t remember if I cried,
when I read about his widowed dwarven bride,
something touched me deep inside
the day, Gary Gygax died…
