Notes About The Poem

Once again, Poetry Soup has not allowed the inclusion of an apostrophe in the title of this poem.  As such, I am inserting it into the body of the poem and doing so in bold type.  The original title is: “Cancer's Calendar”

 
 

 

Cancer Calendar

Cancer's Calendar


Two months...
to die.
Two months to live.
No choice but 
still...
your choice.

Two months and the
Too Short
becomes the
Harrowingly Long.
