“Makos Baby, Makos”

- Brett T. Bailey

February 6th, 1973 – 
September 11, 2001

​

We are the music makers, and we are the dreamers of dreams,

Wandering by lone sea-breakers and sitting by desolate streams.  

Yet we are the movers and shakers of the world forever, it seems. 


- Arthur O'Shaughnessy
