Diva For The Weekend -- Whitney Houston, R.I.P.

It appears to me,
that with a diva like
Whitney Houston,
I can clearly say
that divas are required
to take those big risks 



and end up singing about tragedy. . 


. . . and to sing tragedy well
is to live it . . . 



. . . to wear it with both agony and beauty. . . 



.


Why, oh why, must some of them be destined
to die
so tragically?

A beautiful talent,
a great diva,
and 
a sad, sad loss.
