That poem from Bruiser...

[SymphonicX]

Does anyone know who wrote it? The man had gone to market, to buy a diamond ring. The man who never noticed, that he was not a king. He choose the brightest sparkle, a diamond made of glass. The setting bright and gold, was crafted out of brass. The man spent all his money, the jeweler was a cheat. He told the man that royals, wore diamonds on their feet. The man went proudly walking, inside his shoe the ring. And no one ever told him, that he was not a king.

George A Romero! Sorry, not trying to be glib. I too thought that this was a cool poem and attempted to search it out a while ago, but came up short. So either the author is real obscure or it is simply George. EDIT: I just did a google search and the only corresponding hits lead me to IMDB's "Bruiser" entry.
