Cancer
That horrible thing, causing fear intially,
Diagnosing,
Rips families and friendships apart,
Catastrophe.
Young, old, both sexes too,
Indiscrimintating,
The healing process,
Traumatising.
Leaving people in a state of constant fear,
Disabling
Not sure what to do with one's life,
Freezing.
On the rise, many origins,
Spreading,
Nature's way to control the masses?
Destroying.
Become a huge business,
Medically,
Those getting treated, spending money,
Pharmaceutically.
Will it ever go away,
Unlikely,
Man made phoenomenon,
Conspiracy.
Here to stay, research is constant,
Money,
Lets get together, raise awareness,
Charity.
Mindset and lifestyle are causes,
Really?
Stress, diet, modern life,
Crazy.
Yesterday there was no fear,
Mystery,
Cancer, what is that, Modern day,
Travesty.

Like a lot of us been through shitty parts in my life. In 2018 I was living in London, attending a part time acting school. It was a great time. Also I was presenting at an event, one of the tutors at the acting school took me under his wing and mentored me. Part of that process he taught me how to write poetry, or at least express myself through it. Now, I write a poem every day, I write for a hobby. I've had a varied career, the only thing I can say is writing is the best things I've ever done. I absolutely love it. Have got 14 publications on a short story website and launching my own website in December 2022, http://www.PeterGreenhall.com Feel free to add any comments. I hope you enjoy reading my poems as much as I enjoyed putting them together.
