The Flawed Icon Poem by NAYYAR SHABBIR AHMAD

The Flawed Icon



To some he was iconic
To others bizarre
But, all accepted that he was deeply, deeply flawed

Yet, in the same train of thought people ask
where were you when Kennedy was assassinated
when Martin Luther King was shot dead
when man landed on the moon
when Elvis died

And, now
when Michael Jackson was pronounced dead?
