Sonnet: How Cancers Kill! Poem by Dr John Celes

One life is slipping slowly, surely and
Its destiny I cannot change one bit;
Despite my prayers for Almighty's Hand,
I can't prevent the fall into the pit!

How cancers go is known to everyone;
In early stages, some escape its kill;
When widely spread, nothing can be undone;
The patient quickly dies, becoming ill.

How ruthlessly some cancers do behave?
None can avoid the downhill course, they take;
No human power can them ever save;
Efforts at consolation appear fake.

The cancer-war is far from over still,
With none to mitigate the rising bill!
