Michael Jackson died a few hours ago.  Throngs are now gathering outside his hospital window, looking up at his hospital window.  Waiting?  Perhaps for a glimpse of... of something that connects their glances to his life and death. 

This is a moment they will cherish and tell their children about.  The people who gather at Michael's hospital window are not the scorners, the deriders, the haters, the believers in all the horrific things that were alleged about Michael Jackson.  They are the lovers of the legend and the legacy of that legend.  For them, the rest is worthy only of silence.

Good bye, Michael.  I hope the pain has finally stopped.
