The 1001 Faces of Michael Jackson

October 3rd, 2009 | Posted in Dirty Blue Widgets of Sadness

Death of the flesh is sometimes memory awakening,

Good occasion for celebration and time for remembering,

1001 moms and dads, spread across two generations or such

Will buy their kids Michael Jackson costumes in soft fabrics, so pleasant to touch

And will let them loose in the Halloween night

To beg for a candy, to fire a light,

To party like Michael himself would have, until dawn

If he were still among us and not only a stand on our lawn.
