Keeping Faith This Rumour Is False
If I could eradicate a disease would it be shingles, cancer or ALS?
All good causes, but here is the test.
Which one kills the most children in a slow, horrible way?
I have to say let’s eradicate cancer now. Caring not what we would have to pay.
I keep hearing rumours that the world already has the cure but is keeping it secret.
As a cure would eliminate so many jobs.
If this is true, then our world is more diabolically dirty than I ever hoped to imagine.
I have to keep faith that the rumour is false.
It is the only way I can bear it….
