Icon is a bizarre word.
The idealization of taking someone’s likeliness that’s never particularly been comfortable being typecast.
The one’s whom were never quite on par with the mold get appreciated for such, after their molds have been broken.
They become the trend.
They become the focus.
They become the message.
The notorious become the famous.
The famous become the platforms.
The platforms become the message.
The icons?
The become it all.
They become a force.
They become strong.
Their voice becomes unstoppable.
Even in the after-life.
