Poem Commentary

This is a dedication poem to Michael Joseph Jackson, gone but will not be 4gotten.

LIKE MIKE

We can all deny,
Or plainly lie
That at one point in time, day or night
We all wanted to be Like Mike
We tried to imitate his dance moves
We all bounced to his grooves
We all punned the way he would tawk
We all tried at one point; To moon walk
I can't lie;
Nor will I deny
At one point in time, I wished I was Like Mike
The only difference is--
I would’ve had women across the globe
In every town I tour, they would disrobe
They would always get a backstage pass
As long as they shake that ass
Yeah, I too love the kids
But I wouldn’t have played the scarecrow in The Wiz
Mike you will always be my big brother
From another mother

You can R.I.P-----finally
LOVE U, man
