Cancer Victim
This unwanted visitor,
with an unwarranted embarkation,
crept in unannounced, wrought
misery and malignancy-
metastasized body domain,
heralded by an oncologist:
categorized neoplasm,
cataloged astroblastoma;
and for his suffering, a soft lullaby,
for whom administered a ridiculous
dying prayer to lift his spirits
away from any hope;
adriamycin drips like ball-fires
running through his blacken veins;
he heads home to his sanctuary feeling
optimistic then loads his gun and
surrenders there without a prayer.
