Ode to Michael

Tears flow
today
hearts ache

Music plays

This man
in the mirror...
see the beauty
for nothing other than it matters

The beauty of this being
his music, artistry, world unity
Oh Michael
Your voice touches my soul

A legend is lost on this day
Sadness profound

Remember this spirit
the gentle genius
whose life burned bright
extinguished now
yet lives forevermore
