Cancer To Make No Mistake

A losing struggle over his life, Cancer to make no mistake Of a blunt knife; Its image takes as The-At-Stake And the ongoing struggle Stark Strife! A death helped by a Hurrying Disease Lewis’ blasphemous anger at his unease: “Then, God does endorse The Sadism Worse than Unholy Nudism”. A bitter quitting of Britain for a discarded village And helpless reoccupation of a farm ridge: A final instruction to close friends About his preferred casket Curses raining on friends-turned-fiends, Who some other choose at the market.
