Elsewhere, in reference to the increasing flood of spammers appearing, @nancyrost said "This is how the FAWM ghost season starts." So, inevitably...
GHOST WRITERS IN THE SKY
(with apologies to Stan Jones and ©Edwin H Morris)
A songwriter went writing out
One dark and windy May
Upon FAWM.org he rested
As he went along his way
When all at once a mighty throng
Of songwriters he saw
Plowin' through the ragged skies
And up the cloudy DAW
Their bands were still on fire
And their strings were made of steel
Their keyboards black and shiny
And their hot breath he could feel
A bolt of fear went through him
As they thundered through the sky
For he saw the writers coming hard
And he heard their mournful cry
Yippie-yi-o
Yippie-yi-yay
Ghost Writers in the sky
Their faces gaunt
Their eyes were blurred
Their shirts all soaked with sweat
Writing hard to catch that song
But they ain't caught it yet
'Cause they've got to write forever
On that DAW up in the sky
On laptops snorting fire
As they write on, hear their cry
Yippie-yi-o
Yippie-yi-yay
Ghost Writers in the sky
As the writers wrote on by him
He heard one call his name
'If you wanna save your soul
From hell a-writing on our page
Songwriter, change your ways today
Or with us you will write
Trying to catch the devil's song
Across these endless skies
Yippie-yi-o
Yippie-yi-yay
