I would like to nominate my personal assistant Gul Vadoc posthumously for the poetry category. I heard him sing the following song along with some other slaves. Unfortunately Gul is no longer with us, but I’ll gladly take the prize and put it to good use. For his family. Of course.

Oh and I’ll also submit this to the “Minmatar Culture” category. As poor Gul was Minmatar. Also I look forward to receiving Ushra Khan’s donations.
