Cancer's Notoriety

Cancer is a tricky performer, like a demon it takes possession of peoples' bodies, with lots of melodrama, whether or not they are ready, the Cancer is prepared to start a relationship, by declaring it's going steady with whomever it chooses, to a normal unsuspecting person, It becomes a doozie, It turns its patients into shell of themselves, unrecognizeable, after bouts of hell, Sometimes hard for family members to tell, nothing short of an excorcism can make Cancer lose its vigor and vim, Cancer gains notoriety through all the tests and research, being lauded in Great Halls and Churches Then suddenly a star emerges, Sometimes we forget that the patient deserves some credit, but Cancer doesn't like to share the limelight, or welcomes edits, It wants to be El Numero Uno, the defining stick of dynamite, rocking its victims' world until it is stirred and shaken, Finally declaring victory when its victims never awaken.
