Meet the Senator Sunday: Michael Jackson

Dearest peoples on the innernets,

This is Senator Henry Jackson Edward Graves III speakin'.  It is now time for this week's edition of "Meet the Senator Sunday".  Today, dear peoples, I wants to talk 'bout the loss of Mr. Michael Jackson. 

When I first heard 'bout Mr. Jackson's passin', my first thought was "Michael Who?"...I ain't got the bestest long-term memories...but then mommy reminded me and we listened to some of his songs and I then realized that he was a very talented person.  Mr. Jackson, I am very real sorry you had such a sad life.  I just can't help but believe that if you hadn't been such a famous person, you would still be alive today and happy with your kids.  But you are gone now and, whether it was 'cause of drugs or not, I am sad that we will never hear your voice or see you dance again.

See, I unnerstand how stressfuls it can be to be so very famous and watched all the dang time.  Your passin' on to the great beyond has caused me to do a lot of thinkin'...and what with me bein' a big fancy Senator and all, I ain't got lots to think with so this is a big deal for me...I'm takin' one of your songs to heart, Mr. Jackson...see...I'm gonna make a change...for once in my life...before I gits into the same kind of troubles you had...and, it's gonna feel real good.  I'm gonna make a difference...I'm gonna make it rights.    See, Mr. Jackson, I'm startin' with the man in the mirror...I'm askin' him to change his ways.  See...that man in the mirror is gittin' on my last nerve.  If I move, he moves.  If I meow, he meows.  It's very much annoyin'.  I want him to stop...no message could be any clearer...I'm gonna git all sad and freaked out if he doesn't stop it.  Then, I'll have to start wearin' a mask when I inneract with my peoples and before you knows it...I'll be six feet under.  So...I'm askin' him to take a look at himselfs instead of me all the time and...CHANGE! 

I am gonna say prayers for your family and that you will finally be at peace, Mr. Jackson.   Godspeed.

Very truly yours,
Senator Henry Jackson Edward Graves III
