Michael
Tabitha J. Bryson 1973 (Indianapolis, Indiana)
His sweet uncanny joy...
His dance so mystical...
...it awakens my very soul
The master of his craft
The perfectionist beyond all human comprehension
No-one understands his being
They just stare, gawk & wonder...
A heart so painfully loving and true
Such an exquisite glow he makes everyone feel anew...
So pure and untouched by human tongues...
...he dances on.
Sailing up over the mountain tops, up as high as he chooses
He denounces all wrong, giving everyone his very soul...
Yet, he is in desolation.
Full of childlike innocence...
He laughs ebulliently, filled with freedom of the spirit...
Yet, he is degraded of his very purpose
His music is unmistakably recognized worldwide...
But, he is looked down upon
He is compassionate and carries the banner of peace tirelessly...
Yet, he is labeled a hoax and a liar
He is the brightest star in this galaxy...
Yet, he is reclusive
Total hysteria surrounds him constantly
Yet, he rests gratefully
His mission is contentment between the races, the lands, the seas & the air...
But still, ignorance & hatred plague those around him
He is wise, charatable... a friend forever & a mystery to all...
He is the undisputed
"King of Pop, Rock & Soul"
He is simply....
Mr. Michael Joseph Jackson
