Reddish black and yawing like the jaws of hell Not teaparty pink. Mastectomy disfigures Chemo is poison not therapy Alone in the room for radiation Fight for reconstruction Life dims to a blur. Scarier than Halloween, Pink plastic fills your stores. Pretty ribbons mask my pain. Two percent for research? Don't care to donate more? Octobers bring no cure Each pinker than the last. You sell my suffering, Drag me through nightmares I've visted before. I hope you never know How this feels. If you did, You wouldn't sell.
