Last Thoughts About Michael Jackson

Tonight MTV ran all of his videos, thankfully without maudlin comment. I hadn't seen some of them before and I saw some of them with a new perspective. A few things struck me. The genuieness of his smile and it's power, his intensity, the sexuality of his work, how repetitive his dancing got, the celebrities he accumulated and his charisma. I tried something suggested somewhere else and turned off the sound and watched him dance. The comparisons between him and Fred Astaire are fair. You can see the music move through them. Rest in the peace you deserved Mr. Jackson.
