 Prostate Cancer

I am the prostate gland and be

Helping the males having sex and

Urination activity.

Sometimes cancer does strike this gland.

Often symptomless, males opt out

Doctor checking me, so I am

Getting worse, cuz males cringe about

The digital rectal exam.

Hopefully, if caught soon enough

The cancer in me will not spread.

Thanks to good medical stuff

I'm fixed before the male is dead.

So to the males I say, "Man up."

"Have me checked regularly, yup!"
