Cancerous Effects Poem by Rm. Shanmugam Chettiar

Cancerous Effects



Cancer, the zodiac sign, rings good
In people’s mind as the fate ruler.
Cancer, the blight, is a dreadful word
People feel shy of mentioning it.
It strikes fear in the people’s hearts
And gives powerlessness to patients.
Victims believe they would recover;
Others wait for the end of victims.
The pity shown to patients kills them.
Patients, while alive, are written off.
Powerlessness overcomes treatments.
Stigma clung to cancer be cut off.
