My friend Flipz asked me to write a soliloquy for mines of doom... I'd like to share it here...
The " poem" is contained within...

* Cart has just jumped track, DD101 is ok, Treecleaver is presumed lost*

OH My Goodness!!  …  I had a feeling something like this would happen if those boys weren’t careful. I asked them to hold on tight. What are we going to do now?
I cannot imagine an LU or an MLN without my friend Treecleaver.

I felt a bump, I heard a shout, and then we all were cast about…
And now I fear with all my heart, my friend Treecleaver’s fallen out!
Our world has changed forever more,
But he will remain alive through our lore.
A living legend, he surely was…
And a great friend to each of us.
He was such an honest trader,
And a Lego creation innovator.
He climbed the ranks from 0 to ten,
And favored LU with bricks & pen.
His skill was known by everyone,
His rep as a master bricker was fairly won.
His building star shown bright in LDD
Trading posts, ships and even a tree!
He was a beta tester for MLN,
And he was a legend, even back then.
I can’t believe he’s really gone…
I don’t know how I’ll carry on…
Alas our grand adventure is not what we all wished for.
There’ll be a void in LU forever more.

We must erect a monument to our fallen friend. His greatness and valor must never be forgotten. All my bricks will go to this endeavor.
Who’s with me?
