Music: "Honey, I Miss You"
See the tree, how big it's grown
Since I have lived here on my own,
And it's been good,
Since Christopher began his fun
And brought us all to live in Hun-
Dred Acre Wood.
Well, I came home today to stretch
Before the mirror, and then fetch
My hunny-pot.
Now, I'm a simple-minded bear,
But I know there was hunny there,
And now there's not.
And Hunny, I miss you,
You left without a sound,
Wait! What's at the bottom?
-- Oh, bother. Piglet drowned.
I debuted this at Dorsai Thing 19 in Ann Arbor, MI, and got one of the best reactions of my career: A room full of large, tough men and sleek, dangerous women, hardened by lives of combat and survival, all sitting there with quavering lips, blubbering, "You killed Piglet!"
