A true psychopath, Cancer thrives on victims’ fears, Remorseless, it kills Old men, women and children And stabs young men in the back. For Joann’s Cantankacerous contest

this is really good. Did it not get on the list? I wonder if this was a contest where you were supposed to do two stanzas or something. I really would expect to see it a winner!

Howdy Jack, so devious it is... why is it the heart of pain? I don't know... I think cancer hurts the most when you are not the one affected... Good luck in the contest,,xox~PD

You've got cancer pegged to a T! Cancer is probably the worst thing in this world! It saddens my heart every time I hear someone with cancer, I beg the Lord for them to be healed! This is a fantastic write my friend! I was really taken deep inside every word of your creative poem! You've done magnificent with this write! Great Work!!
