Succinct

Caution the freeway
Muffle the the noise 
Scour the earth 
Search out his boys
With regret 
Inform them their father lay dead
Succinct in his bed
And tell the to put aside there grief
The time has come to anoint a new Chief

Succinct pretty much sums this up. There are a few grammatical errors but that's just me being a grammar nazi, the poem is strong and powerful and emotional. Keep it up x
