Ok, maybe it was cardiac arrest. The news was long in coming and finally did. Every since the bizarre facial reconstructions, many sensed something was terrible wrong somewhere with this gifted and sensitive soul. Most artists are that way, fragile in emotions..open to vibes around of them.. which makes them really good at what they do and also vulnerableto to the thoughts of others, good or bad.
Enter the vicious media which grudges each star life for the good life he or she has and is ever armed to sadisctically snub out the life out of them the moment they falter as in many cases we have seen over the years.
MJ's final falling has been the child molest allegations which he struggled to reconcile . Maybe he did it, maybe all he did was to spend a very close relationship with these kids where they expressed themselves freely. In a world now, where 5 year olds are giving oral jobs for the peers and sex at 7, with the net brimming with all sexual trivias, I am surprised that many took on a prudish front in judging this guy for what he may or may not have done. But the damage was done and i guess he never recovered. IT was downhill from then on. If i were him i would have fired his publicist long time ago. The oxygen tank, chimpazees and then the wife and then the other kids with the nurse... it was all up against him. Maybe it was a conspiracy to destory a man who got too successful for his own good. As always the case, there is always a gauging force in our socio economic environment which will never allow a person or organisation to get too powerful, to go beyond where 'they' stand. 'They' remains not so much of mystery but we know they are there.
Tragic that he is leaving his three kids who need him. He should have thought about them but i guess the new found cancer and depression won in the end. Two things can happen when you have an unhappy childhood, one you grow up to be a better parent, two, you just dont care anymore.
So here's to another soul.. who had an eventful life but left with much sadness. Sometimes we wonder, what is it that makes these people do what they do when they have money and fame. What was their last thoughts.. could we have helped if we had been there. But i guess in a way, he must be really glad that the show is finally over and he can rest in peace.
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust.
My favourite, MJ's Earth Song
