Michael Jackson

If you watch Michael Jackson When he was a boy, You will smile and delight In his unabashed joy. He commanded the stage, All his brothers mere props, For as young as he was, He pulled out all the stops. Check the Spike Lee biopic And you’ll be impressed At the talent and energy Jackson possessed. We all heard of his problems – Each habit and flaw – But when up on the stage, He was worthy of awe.

YES YES YES!!! I was a die hard Michael fan in high school. Everyone knew. I wore the pins and everything. That's when Thriller came out. Whatever issues he was going through....personally, Michael was a consummate entertainer. Great write.
