"Where Were You" (Remembering Michael Jackson)A Poem by E. Renard Jackson In all likelihood we'll never forgot where we were on June 25, 2009 at 2:26pm PST... Where Were You... When Dark Clouds Rose Above The Manicured Lawns Of Beverly Hills And Cast Its Grim Shadow Across The Globe?
Where Were You... When The Children, Parents And Grand Parents Came Together To Mourn The Loss Of A King, Whose Music Defined Generations?
And Where Were You... When You Heard His Song On The Radio, Or When You Saw His Face On The Cover Of Your Favorite Magazine For The Very First Time?
Where Were You... When His Every Video Became A Must-See Event, Bringing The Whole World To A Pause?
Where Were You... When You Tried In Vain To Mimic His Every Move, But To No Avail?
And Where Were You... When He First Moonwalked Across The Stage, Right Into The Pages Of Immortality?
Where Were You... On The Day? Where Were You... At The Hour? Where Were You... On The Day And The Hour The Music And Our Innocence Came To An End?
Tell Me... Where Were You? © 2011 E. Renard Jackson |
