R.I.P DAVID BOWIE

  RIP DAVID BOWIE                               TIM WILLIAMS JAN. 2016

I HEARD THE NEWS YESTERDAY
THAT THE SON OF FASCINATION
WILL NO LONGER BE HERE TO FASCINATE ME,
HIS TREE OF MUSICAL GIFTS WILL BARE NO NEW FRUIT
FOR MY SOUL TO DEVOUR,
SO NOW I AM TO FACE MY GOLDEN YEARS MUSICALLY ALONE,
WITH NO NEW ADDITIONS TO MY LIFE'S SOUNDTRACK,
I AM DOOMED TO WALK BLINDFOLD AND BUTTON EYE'D LIKE HIS LAZARUS
INTO AN UNFAMILIAR FUTURE LISTENING TO THE MUSIC OF MY YOUNGER DAYS.

BUT WHAT IS ALSO VERY FRIGHTENING IS THE FACT
THAT NOW THE MUSIC FROM UPSTAIRS SOUNDS
SO MUCH BETTER THAN THE MUSIC HERE,
AND EVEN THAT WHICH EMINATES FROM THE BASEMENT.
R.I.P DAVID BOWIE, YOUR STAR WILL BE FOREVER SADLY MISSED.
