A child sold 3,000 drawings
In hopes he’d pay for cancer treatment.
And that’s the saddest thing I’ve ever heard.
A woman was refused her chemo therapy
For having no insurance.
And that’s the saddest thing I’ve ever heard.
A man died sickly and afraid
Of bankrupting his family
So he never saw a doctor.
And that’s the saddest thing I’ve ever heard.
People die everyday
That never should, while others live
Get rich off greed.
And that’s the saddest thing I’ve ever heard.
Wow! That first stanza could be a poem just by itself. So much emotion in so few words.
