It was 6am at the All Smiles Orphanage. The old, tatty building stood on the outskirts of London and was nyumbani to twenty children from the age of four to the age of twelve. All the children had just been woken up kwa the ear-splitting kengele that went off and the terrifying yells of Matron Helen and Matron Hazel.
The children all scrambled out of their small, stiff beds and went to the messy bathroom. Everyone was wide awake and out of their beds except for one five mwaka old girl. Rosabel Diamond was still fast asleep. She had Lost her mother when she was two years old and her father abandoned her soon after that when his drinking and smoking habits got worse. It was the inayofuata door neighbour that had brought her to the orphanage.
Currently though, Rosabel was having a wonderful dream about her idol Michael Jackson. She was with him in Neverland playing hide and seek with him and eating candy. Michael was just about to give her a loving kiss when the rickety door of the bedroom burst open.
"Rosabel! What do wewe think you're doing? Get up, this instant!" It was Matron Hazel.
She strode over to Rosabel and shook her violently until she was not only awake, but feeling dizzy and sick.
"I'm sorry Matron, I didn't mean to oversleep." Rosabel said, trying to hold back her tears.
Matron Hazel put her fat, pink face centimetres away from Rosabel's. "Don't wewe dare let it happen again, au wewe won't eat for days." She growled. "Now get downstairs, the windows aren't going to clean themselves!"
"Yes Matron." Rosabel mumbled, a tear running down her cheeck as she left the room.

wewe believed wewe were alone
That no one truly loved you
wewe can try to hide your pain from me
But I feel it either way
When your moyo breaks, so does mine
Does that tell wewe how I feel
When I'm upset I look to you
Your smile makes it all vanish
No one else can make that happen
The world took so much away from you
But they'll never take away your memory
Its one thing we'll always have
wewe never knew me
You'll never know my love
Of maybe wewe already do
For I always feel wewe near
You're gone from me mortally
But my moyo will always remember you
My moyo mourns for losing you
Yet it rejoices for your homecoming in heaven
You're far away, yet you're where wewe belong
You're smiling down on all of us each day
I believe you've forgiven me for the past
And the future I see only increases my upendo for wewe undying.

"Michael was doing on an epic scale what all humans must do, keep going through the illusions, mistakes, hurts, conceits, self-hate and masks of human life, sometimes not having any idea if what is important to wewe actually has any value, au even knowing what is important to you."
This is an excerpt from Mary Gaitskill's wonderful essay (with videos) on Michael. Check it out:
