There once lived a human system ,

One where peace and harmony coexisted.


Until an enemy crept slowly into their midst ,

and existed.


This enemy โ€” they call him CANCER in the big book,

others call him the taker of lives by the hook.


They say it is the ๐™’๐™Š๐™ˆ๐™€๐™‰!!!

the ones with the fuller chests,

the only creatures whose beauty is tied to their breasts.


They say it is the ๐™’๐™Š๐™ˆ๐™€๐™‰!!!

the only gender predisposed to being disposed of by this disease.


But what about the ๐™ˆ๐™€๐™‰!!!?

they too have chests and breasts.

Let the flatness and hardness not fool them

into believing they are exempted.


Yes it is rare

but breast cancer still dares,

even with their bare chests and breasts.


| "What about a cure??

| Do you mean to tell me there is no cure?"


....Panicked, the people asked.


Oh, a ๐™˜๐™ช๐™ง๐™š ,

that strangely reassuring word ,

it does linger.


It lingers in early detection;

its extinction and regression are strengthened

when these baby cancers โ€”

or should I speak like the scientist โ€” โ€œcancerous cellsโ€ โ€”

are detected early enough.


And so I say, to YOU ๐Ÿซต๐Ÿฟ,

"you don check your bobi today?",

a sentence which translates to " Have you checked your breast today?"


Don't say "I'm too beautiful to develop breast cancer".


Breast cancer knows ๐™‰๐™Š ๐™๐˜ผ๐˜พ๐™€, ๐™‰๐™Š ๐™๐˜ผ๐˜พ๐™€ and ๐™‰๐™Š ๐™‚๐™€๐™‰๐˜ฟ๐™€๐™.

Breast cancer isnโ€™t just a womanโ€™s story, itโ€™s a human story.

It doesnโ€™t wait. It doesnโ€™t discriminate.

This is piece is a reminder that early detection and awareness saves lives.
