-Cancer Critter

Cancer Critter runs rampant
It wanders our earth and kills
Still unable to erase it completely 
Not sure we ever will?

Cancer Critter can be deadly 
If bitten you are seriously unwell
Symptoms are often silent
Often no way to tell

If you or someone you love are bitten
It’s a frightening time for sure
Your mind completely overwhelmed
With fear, uncertainties, questions galore

The road ahead will be long
There will be a battle to fight
Some succumb to the Cancer Critter
Others survive its nasty bite

Cancer Critter is repulsive
It’s so ugly and black
It creeps around finding victims 
Then quietly attacks……

Take care and just beware
Monitor the best you can
Be mindful of the Cancer Critter
Critical we rid it from our land
