The Fat Lady Has Not Yet Sung!

(For My Friend, Joe)

As Clemson beat the mighty Alabama,
Joe battles against his angio-sarcoma.
Watson to Renfro, the pass that won the game,
Doc Onc to Joe, the meds must do the same.

A year the Tigers will hold the champions crown,
Until new games threaten to bring them down.
Accustomed to facing foes with power and might,
The Dabo, Doc Onc, and Joe with grit must fight
Until the final whistle signals an end,
And Joe has won the battle all over again.

This year the second quarter of game two
The Dabo knew his Tigers were not through.
And so today Joe must believe the same,
He and Doc Onc still got plenty of game.
