The Minute Poem
:
Michael Jackson - in Memoriam

I mourn the boy before the fall,
whom God gave voice and gift of dance,
who captivated one and all
with Thriller beat and moonwalk stance.
I mourn the child of tender age
whose talent blazed across the stage.
This is the boy whom I believe
God in His loving arms received.

Author Notes
There are few people more iconic in any field than Michael Jackson was in the world of pop music. My personal religious beliefs are that God receives us back in the innocence and perfection with which He created us. No matter what sins any man has committed in his lifetime, it is not mine to judge them upon his death. I prefer to remember the best of a person, which does not mean at all I dismiss or condone the worst. Please do not respond by reminding me of all the things this tragically flawed child of God did to displease you - I'm aware of them.
