King's Granted Wish

 

His father boosted his desire

Burned his passion into a wicked fire

Gloomy soul, shady emotion and dark skin.

It’s stalling his wish to gain a friend

He is hunger to be free, wanted to be white.

He aimed visibility in everyone’s sight 

Greatness comes in his way

Everything he imagined settled in reality

Money granted all his wishes

Shattered dreams broken into pieces

This world he lived was deceptive

Very far from the world which he believed

His Neverland realized his dream

Moonwalk magnified his passion in hymn

He loves to play as they deprived his childhood

He always ends up being misunderstood

He is frantic longing for a deep sleep

His mind disturbed by unfathomable bleep

He is completely drained, He opt to Dr. Evil

Injecting valium, ativan and versed to soothe the feel

His longing for deep sleep was granted forever

His flesh poisoned by the mixed recipe of disaster

A sad night in June, he is alone and devastated.

After a few hours the King of Pop died in his bed

A sad eulogy... written in a very emotional way. I think it's lovely that it ignores all the later controversies. It has a few tense issues:


"He always ends up being misunderstood".

"This world he lived was deceptive,
Very far from the world in which he believed."

"money granted all his..."

A beautiful tribute to one of the great 'albeit' misunderstood icons of our time. He contributed such lovely music....you told his story well. So sad...tragic really, he was an amazing talent. Thanks for sharing this one Marc.

His life was a struggle filled with highs and lows, but it seems that the lows came more often. This is a really interesting poem Marc- his neverland really was his never land.

Thanks Ice, you always here reviewing my work :) I am glad and happy for your support thanks again.

"He loves to play as they deprived his childhood" is the heart of this poem, Marc. I find the poem, as a piece of art, a bit disjointed - almost a thought stream you`ve written as you thought it. I can only describe the way I would produce a piece from my thoughts....and that is, once I have them all recorded, I pick out the actual "skeleton"" first, then build the "meat" around, thereby building structure into the piece. Hope this helps. P.
