John Wayne Brown - Part Iv

Even though you did me wrong, I've written a few poems about you. You came in my house and stole some pills, that was a bad thing to do. You also borrowed some money but didn't repay what you owed. Sadly, you can't celebrate this Christmas because you died half a year ago. This will be the first Christmas since 1969 that you're not alive. You died six months ago today, you weren't able to survive. You had a heart murmur but half a year ago, your heart stopped beating. When it came to death, it was something you had no chance of defeating. [Dedicated to John W. Brown (1969-2019) who died on June 3, 2019.]
