I saw the headline and a shiver went through me. I was never a fan I thought she was as fake as a nine bob note but she was part of my youth and her death reminded me youth is gone and we of those heady wonderful indomitable sixties are become fragile.
I hate it I wish she would have died quietly, silently in secret. I know I’m selfish and maybe heartless although I don’t think so I think the heart beats a little louder and more fearfully with each death of my generation.
Its not Elvis who was older and died of willful neglect or John Lennon murdered by a lunatic. It was death by natural causes and that’s what made me shiver. My generation are so much closer to natural causes now.
