Michael Jackson’s skull

This is MJ’s skull.
He was (subtle grammatical shift) always Michael Jackson’s skull, even before it was all he had left.
He has a few brothers (they are skulls too, but in a complicated way still have another existence).
He likes the colour gold and the look of merry-go-rounds.
He is still confused after his death (and by his death).
He is often crying and smoking a cigar.
Birds flying over his head often shit on him (which does not improve matters – they have no respect!).
He is luminous pink because of his desire to be peaceful.
Panda Heads are his friends. They cry together.
