President’s Cancer

My President has cancer
The kind
That killed my brother
Whose detection seemingly
Went late
And though he lasted through
The treatment and his life
Awhile
He was taken by the cancer away
From us
And what he knew
For sure of him

And so I feel strongly for this thing
My parents
And too many others I
Have known
While
This is about you
Mister President
Like
My brother

And I am sorry
And I wish you well through medical
Responses

Thank you for your service
By which we know
How to pray for you
In
Days
