(Thee ALFA (alpha)

"Queen of Soul")


Though unbeknownst
to the diva,
where thee now
sings with angels
(me, an invisible
nameless spirit),
accompanies your
mythic legendary
legacy afterlife
already doth
Make Me
Feel Like
an average star
descended
from on high,

thus inducing
this generic
solar stellar body
to exalt My
tribute to A
Natural Woman,
who unwittingly
wrought and
outshone such
golden gilded
fused steely
mettle, imbuing
A Brand
New Me,

twinkling in
your
posthumously
shadow
nonetheless averring
A Change

pronouncing
A Deeper Love

Is Still A Rose
unsurpassed
vibrancy despite
super nova
waning zenith,
thence descent
into hallowed grave,
where Ain't
No Way any
other Angel

could hold
an Olympic torch
blindingly
as thee to
illuminate
Another Night
infused with
brilliant poignant
heartfelt
sentiment, sans
awe rays
burning queenly
pulsating Baby
I Love You

no matter
crossing into
now ye didst
cross over
into eternal
resting place
thus, apropos
for thyself
a disembodied
essence unbeknowst
to thee to
intone psalm
afterlife Border
Song (holy Moses)

guiding holy
spirit across Bridge
Over Troubled Water
asking thee
to Call Me
upon arriving safely
decoupled
from Earthly
Chain Of Fools,
where timeless
