Make that 6 votes for digital and 1 vote for a live screening- not counting the votes from Facebook, that is, which would bring it up to 7 votes for digital and 5 for a live screening. Keep the votes coming!

to support our film "Night Train"

Our good friend Erica made a donation
after having a couple mojitos
but if the drinks were her sole inspiration
is something that only she knows.
We like to believe that our film is the reason
fo this gift that she is bestowing
and hope that we'll see her at the end of the season
after "Night Train" has it's first showing!

A thank you to Wolfgang who came on this site
and didn't hold back for a minute
Before making a pledge to our awe and delight
towards our new film so we could begin it.
And even though funding had passed our first goal
he didn't hold back his largess
We can't wait to share our new film as a whole
to this honored and honorable guest.
Creator Blue Damen Pictures on May 24, 2011
There once was a gal named Darlene
Who thought our production was keen
Said she: "I want to see more
of this style 'mumblecore'!"
And her pledge brought us joy quite extreme.

A generous fellow, Mark Tinker,
supported us hook, line, and sinker
if he'd used words to flatter

Sorry- the poet that we keep on a leash in the backyard got into the locoweed and started adding in names higglety-pigglety. She's foaming at the mouth now and muttering something about "too many syllables".
She might have done enough 'ku's for one day... here's the correct version:

When he saw that our goal was unmet
So he pledged us some green,
