A SONNET FOR ROYCE GRACIE
by Lacrymosa

Before the books are closed in fighting lore,
The fallen Royce once strong, tall, and able
"Perfection!"; the fans have expected more
Before his legend became a fable.
His dream came true on pay-per-view fighting.
One by one his great foes did surrender.
Blinded by spectacle so exciting.
Young man from Rio, deadly and slender.
Where is that man who brought fear to this game?
Where is that champion who wore the white gi?
What was the feat that stole our hero's fame?
Where is that fighter, oh where can he be?
Despite the greatness Royce Gracie has claimed.
That bold and brave warrior, in Pride, was maimed.

"WAY DOWN INSIDE OF RYAN GRACIE"
Lyrics by Lacrymosa

Way down inside of Ryan Gracie
Real deep inside
There's hope he'll beat ol' Sakuraba
At this Friday's Pride.

All the world's impatient, waiting
Oh this guy's not wise.
And Ryan Gracie joins the roster
Of the clan's demise.

MORE GRACIE POETRY
by Lacrymosa

I had a dream one stormy night
That Ryan won his fearsome fight
He KO'd Sak with quite a punch
I knew he'd win! I had a hunch!
The Gracie family: now redeemed
The blemish gone...or so it seemed.
Not Royler, Renzo, even Royce
Could match the strength of Ryan's voice.
Reporters wrote, the cameras flashed.
The streak of Sak completely crashed.
The merchandise will sell again
The seminars we'll charge more yen
We'll take Manhattan, Royce for mayor.
Make this world the Gracie's lair.
We'll wage a war with wrestling's pros.
We'll wipe them out and kill their shows.
With Blackbelt Mag as God's new tome.
We'll oust the pope and conquer Rome
The universe is ours to keep.
The Gracie clan! I start to weep......
I woke up sad; and so I scream.....
"Aw shit! My vision's just a dream!"

LMAO!!!!!

"my sharona" was definitely you're best work as of date Lac. I could actually see along to your lyrics bro. I'm sitting here with a tear in my eye wishing my tribute was half worthy of your masterful creativity.

Freakin Dan! You did ceate a monster ..........

"500 SAKS"
Lyrics by Lacrymosa

Ryan wakes up
And he knows he's gonna be
He's gonna be the next Brazilian who will lose

Rickson dodges
Yes we know he'd rather be
He'd rather be the man who rides the "Gracie Cruise"

Well we will fight 500 Saks
And we will fight 500 more
Just to be the clan that lost a thousand fights
And taps out on the floor

Arm is broken
Renzo knows he'd rather be
He'd rather be without his arm all in a sling

Royce was tired
And he know's he's gonna be
He's gonna be around to fight with K1 Kings.

Well we will fight 500 Saks
And we will fight 500 more
Just to be the clan that lost a thousand fights
And taps out on the floor

[Twisted up]

Sak and Ryan

Another Sak victory!

I would LIVE Ryan to win, but I just don't think it's gonna happen.

Rickson is DEFINITELY not going to fight Sak and risk losing!

"A VERY RYAN GRACIE CHRISTMAS"

'Twas the weekend of Christmas, when all through Japan
Not a person was certain, about this short man;
His name faintly spoken, and hushed with great care,
In hopes that this Gracie will fight, if he dare;
And Gracie was nestled all snug in his bed,
With dreams of redemption alive in his head;

....this poem is much too long. I think I'll quit while I'm ahead.

-Lac

[Lacrymosa]

Well guys,

I must deprive you of my poetic talents for about a week now. I'm on my way to Sunny Nebraska to celebrate the holidays with my kin. Take care everyone and may God grant you the merriest of Christmas's.

-Lac

P.S. - Ryu .....anytime.
