Dear Cancer,

You’re persistent and foreboding, that I won’t deny

But it’s time you learned, because of you, Man will not die.

That’s right, you heard me loud and clear, you won’t killmankind.

That fate will come from something else

That survival will not find.

For what you don’t appreciate, is that you cannot hide

It almost makes it easy, your attention seeking pride.

You make yourself so common that we’re learning every day

Learning how to kill you, how to stop you making way.

For all your work in weakening the people that you strike

There are others working tirelessly to stop you in yourfight.

Nobody’s a victim of the sickness that you spread,

They carry proud the chances to help doctors stop you dead.

So remember Cancer, when you hit the undeserving brave

That the others bearing scars and loss will dance upon yourgrave!
