 Duck You, Cancer!

Creep

Asshole

Nuisance

Competitor

Evil

Reject!

Duck you, Cancer!

No autocorrect is needed when you are trying to be nice

But I do not want you to be nice!

I want you to fight like hell!

With a fire in your soul

And a fight that even George Foreman could not win

As you look in the mirror

I want you to see your once youthful complexion

I want you to see the better side

The happier side of you

Do not let cancer win!

I do not care if it is terminal, brief, or a possibility

Go down a champion and tell the competition to f*** off!

Because cancer will not win

If you do not want to believe that

That is fine

But I do

I will champion for you

I will go bald

I will scream praises in the darkness

As you reach another milestone

You shall never be alone

Cancer will never succeed

So hang on

Hang in

And prove to yourself and all of the doctors that you picked up your cape and put it on before going out the door

You got this!

Some rousing words, and a great play on them. Like MD Anderson Hospital writes, "Making Cancer History."

"Out damn spot!"

It only wins if you let it. Great advice in this heartfelt and tough poem.
