Perspectives on global icons we share,
through foggy goggles of unique daily news.
I thought it was wrong for us to compare,
but apparently we battle our views.
Who’s the prince of pop, or the king of rock?
It’s alright to enjoy them separately.
But maybe not, what I ponders a crock,
I should concede to your reality.
People are still human though their famous,
so I’ll show them respect till they lose it.
As well as cherished souls who go nameless,
for behind scenes they’re overlooked a bit.
If there’s actions of good in someone’s heart,
don’t let poison overshadow that part.
Author notes
The News: Was taking a poll, and asking people who was bigger, MJ, or Elvis. I believe they were both super talented in their own right. What does it matter anyway who's the best, many people who I look up to, with their kind deeds will never make world news. I shake my head I swear when I see them chasing the next best selling story, what a job. Peace we could have, but to do what it takes to achieve it, well, many are obviously not willing.
Show some love.

you have so echoed my sentiments. people, whether celebrities or not deserve to be respected if they earn it. it's ok to enjoy other's talents but why the comparison to the point of disrespect.this uis a fickle world we live in and it is saved by people like you who seek what is truly important. this is a write for the times.

So True,
I don't get that either, why others are always comparing someone to someone else. Let that person stand on what they did, and for crying outloud, enough negative is around for all who loves it to partake in. I can feel your caring ways across the miles, you are such a dear. Peace I pray.
