Cancer Zombie Poem by Bob Genevro

Cancer Zombie

Rating: ★5.0


'Jeez, ' he said. 'I'm sorry
to hear about your brain tumor.
I hope you're gonna be OK.
My wife's first cousin's husband's sister's son
had one
and he got surgery and they cut him up
and that was 4 years ago
and he's still
a zombie! '
