A Lil Tidbit About Phyllis Hyman

How her VOICE, in Our ears like
a bell would be chiming
As she belted out the lyrics like
KANYE be rhyming
To the top of the charts, was she
as a result, climbing
Until, she came to a catastrophic
end like the late Frankie Lymon
Talk about FATE and its having
bad timing
Such was the life of the great,
Phyllis Hyman
(May She, RIP)
