6/26 JD – A sad day for junk

Several famous individuals have passed over the years,
not sure why, but I feel a sadness somewhat greater over Michael’s death.
I think maybe because in some way I identified with him. Not who he was as a person, but identified with the emotion displayed in his tremendous talent.

Lyric:
You went to school to learn girl!
Things you never ever knew before
Like "I" before "E" except after "C"!
And why two plus two makes four!
Now, now, now,
I'm gonna teach you,
All about love girl,
sit yourself down,
take a seat!
All you gotta do is repeat after me!
A, B, C!
It's easy as
One, two, three, as simple as
Do, re, mi, A, B, C, one, two, three!
Baby you and me girl!
It's easy as
One, two, three, as simple as
Do, re, mi, A, B, C, one, two, three!
Baby you and me girl!
Come on girl and love me just a little bit!
I'm gonna teach you how to sing it out!

 

I’ve reminisced at times, what would have it been like to grow up during certain musical eras. The 50’s, the 60’s, 70’s, etc. I think it would have been cool to grow up in the beginning of rock and roll, Buddy Holly, Elvis, Roy Orbison et al. And also wondered what it would be like to just be getting into music right when the Jackson 5 were first breaking out.

 

I’m not much of a poet, but here’s my simple ode.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A, B, C, one, two, three

missing you, do you miss me

singing our lives, singing dreams

backdrops to my reality

 

legends come, great ones stay

did a legend pass by this day

my soul is troubled soul dismayed  

a broken light will show the way

Do, re, mi, A, B, C, incomplete
