Beautiful loved people Destroyed and robbed Friends and families deeply wounded, no visible dressing to put on A most sly and deceitful condition and disease which hides and waits, gives us hope It's an evil devil's nasty that should never be That time bomb we all have But we do beat it But we do last longer And our friends and family love us So what can we do? All we can do is hate Cancer as the devil ,Satan itself and do everything we can to beat it and kick its teeth in and stave it and unplug it and non plus it and fuck it off and contribute to beating it And Helping those with it and helping those with it and helping those with it and caring for those with it and caring for those with it and caring for those with it and caring for those with it And if we haven't got it Just think yourself fucking lucky1
