He dies
Who does the tribute?
Turns out the lighter side jumps at it first
The side that most didn't claim him until one of his biggest hits
Until he was "cool"
His darker side stays in the shadows
The side that most claimed and supported the genius from day one
From that first piece of art released into the universe
They saw he was prolific, multitalented
A star
Where are they?
Why can't they get their shit together?
Enough to pay a tribute
To the one they loved
What is with this constant problem
Of a community that was once to connected and together
Tearing themselves apart and keeping distance?
They can't bring it together enough
To even try
Who does the tribute?
They side that wants to claim him now
Or the side who claimed him first?
Who does the tribute?
Inspiration: A tribute to a fantastic artist
