I don't care about your stupid bandwagoning, I don't want to be a part of it. The haiku isn't the most important thing I have to say, now, I wish I could fully express the mourning and the sorrow I feel. But if visual art can't properly depict it, neither, my friends, can literature.
I cried for someone I didn't know yesterday because I felt like I knew him closely.
I cried for someone I didn't know today because even in death people are trashing his name.
I'm crying for a man I don't know; not just because I loved his music, but more importantly, I loved the man for what he was and what he represented to me.
"Man in the Mirror" "Black or White" "Childhood"
It's a shame, a terrible, terrible shame how cruel the world can be. Michael knew it, and knew it first hand. To one man in just 50 years, the world was. How is it the moment he dies everyone seems to do a heelface turn and love him, or pretend to love him because it will make them look or feel better?
Don't think I don't see the text circulating, forwarded messages even when you say "Oh, well I liked him." If you liked him, you wouldn't tell the jokes, forward them, or anything else but delete them from your phone.
I just hope that Michael can see all the love the fans are spilling for him, instead of the nasty jokes and cruel comments people are making under the radar. Our hearts go to his family, to his children, to his friends, and to everyone who feels like a part of this great world is missing.
I mean it, I'm not being over the top, I'm just accepting it all now that an idol of mine is dead- he's no longer. I walked around in disbelief, like... it can't be.
I suppose we don't realize that someone like Michael, a legendary artist and performer, is mortal just like the rest of us. Not until they die, and not until they die so suddenly.
This has been my rant. I'm sorry, but now more than ever I think I understand the meaning of the song "American Pie" by Don McLean
"But something touched me deep inside The day the music died."
They are not mortals, Nat. They will ALWAYS be alive, Through the music, And the hearts of the fans that still listen to the music and appreciate it. I'm not going to say I liked the man, Sure I liked a FEW of his songs. Two or three and thats it. I will not try to make myself look good, But it is sad at how young he was, Sure 50 may be "old" But it is also so very young, And it was sudden, It also sucks that he couldn't do his UK Tour. But anyways, I am sorry for your loss Nat, But just remember, He's still alive through the beat of the music and the beating hearts of his many MANY fans.

Yeah I can understand that, It is rather upsetting. But some people are just ignorant. Sure I used to make jokes a long time ago, But all these people saying this rather harsh shit, When he DIES? I mean come on now, The jokes I made were never THAT bad. Or at least I never thought so. But still, They should leave the poor guy alone =/

Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it.
Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.
Darkest Corners Lit aims to place lesser known corners of the Literature section into the spotlights. In this article, you will find poems, stories and even novels, as well as groups, all either written in Dutch or (partly) dedicated to the Netherlands and its language.
Even if you can't read dutch, the clubs and groups you find here may be very useful for you, too. Whether you can read Dutch or not, please take a second to this article, and help lit up this obscured corner.
Het doel van Darkest Corners Lit is om minder bekende uithoeken van de Literatuur-sectie hier op dA in de spotlights te zetten. In dit artikel vind je Nederlandse gedichten, verhalen en zelfs boeken, maar ook clubs die met Nederland en Nederlandse literatuur te maken hebben.
Neem alsjeblieft even een seconde de tijd om dit artikel een te geven, om te helpen deze hoek ook eens in de spotlights te zetten.
