HE WAS JUST A POOR MIXED UP MISUNDERSTOOD KID

Why are they selling Michael Jackson's 911 tapes? And crowding at the hospital where he died? It's another media circus run by apes. For voyeurs who have absolutely no sense of pride. He was society's monster who never got to grow up. Dragged too soon, too fast into the sickly green of the limelight. Too much fame, way too much wealth, power not meant for a pup. He was seen in every kind of pose, lit from above, and in backlight. An aging child with no one to play with that was like himself. He got in trouble for trying to spend time with his real peers. He didn't mean anyone any harm. He was just a little elf. It was hard to know that he had grown up over the years.
