I am not endorsing this band whatsoever. If anything, don’t even let your curiousity listen to this band. I am not condemning, rather I feel compelled toward Sean Kennedy. A man I once knew for a moment of brevity. It was my senior year of highschool in Fort Collins, Colorado. Sean and I met through Resurrection Fellowship. He came out of nowhere during our Christmas talent show and of course, I was a big showboat and spoofed a song about being too emotional…then I smashed the plastic guitar into oblivion, then left the stage.
Sean, you were there, you sang that song…we will dance through the moonlight. I feel compelled to tell you what I have written in this poem. If you are out there I hope you can find this.
Its this ink bright as day I
Think, Tickle Me Pink,
I can see you’re the typical
Band that doesn’t seem
To understand that your
Lead singer is no stranger
To the altar, is no random
Man with a sleeve full
Of tattoos, rather he was
Meant for greatness and
Worship and before another
One you guys OD’s I think
You should listen to Me,
If you want to rip me the
Shreds for thinking your
Music is upsetting the dead
Life that you’re all living in,
Be my guest, I am making
One simple request: turn
And see that there is a way
Out of the rock and roll tour
Mania that has you all hooked
On stardom stamina, this one
Goes out to Sean Kennedy,
I’ve seen you before,
There is liberty, you
Probably don’t remember
Silly me getting up on stage
And acting your age, playing
My fake guitar and smashing
It on the floor, this was 2004,
Seems so far away and forgotten,
But God, Christ, and Me all
Agree that you have been
Given gifts for His mercy
To light a path, not for the
Darkness to send you back draft.
If you gain anything from this plea,
Please let it be mercy, love and truth,
I pray you change your way, this
Is no spoof, nor hate crime, I just
See and I cry, I hear his voice
Over your life, you Sean and the
Rest of the band, He has a plan,
If not for me, then turn for He.
How benevolent of you to spread your wisdom and prayers. I wonder why you think your answers are the only ones that matter. Should not Sean follow his own passion? Of course, followers only see the light that they percieve is from He. Your way is the only way because you think you know what He wants. What if Sean feels that he is following His own plan. You spoof; Sean performs; You preach; Sean probes. “Don’t even let your curiosity listen to this band” — why should you be scared of people discovering great new music? Do you feel that they are possessed by the Devil? Your words make me think that your thoughts are narrow minded. Perhaps you should reflect on your own issues and prejudices and worry less about Sean and Tickle Me Pink.
