Hasn't Pete mentioned this chapter in his last two Facebook videos?
* The first two lines of the poem is repeated at the end of the poem.
* The poem says "whoever" wrote it and then hints that a "she" wrote it. The saying is usually attributed to golfer Walter Hagen and was a hit single by Mac Davis.
* The last half of the poem has awkward-looking formatting when compared to the first half.
Other observations about the chapter:
* Some alliteration with the letter "p."
* "speaks to the cracks in our lives" sounds like a hint to me.
* Seems to allude to the hustle and bustle of people and then mentions "Movement of People" with capital letters.
* Joe the Hummingbird

Need to think about it some, goldhunter. I couldn't get very far with it.
Also, connects to Nels comment at the end of the book that the "stack of clues" poem looked similar to the Roses poem.

Yeahj, I'm just trying to point out anything that sticks out or doesn't flow.
I haven't got anywhere with it, either.

The saying is usually attributed to golfer Walter Hagen and was a hit single by Mac Davis. , I'm pretty sure Lane was the one who wrote the poem. Chapter 23:“You guys made this all up?” I turned to Lane. “I thought that poem about the rock-eating tree sounded an awful lot like you.” |

I'm referring to the saying about smelling the roses. The poem makes reference to the saying. |

In that chapter, he talks about St-Germain, a French liqueur. St. Germain was developed by Cooper's Spirits Co., headquartered in New York City. I just noted this as another clue for New York City, one of many.
