Cancer
By Stephen Martin

The cradle fourth
A nest for everyone
Security delivered
But
Need
Is
Paramount

Try this
Give without expecting of return
This is your gift
Others can not match you in this
So to expect them to do so
Is a twisted cruelty

Do not cling
Open those pinchers
Move from side to side
In your circle
But also
Get off the beach

The ocean is vast
And your place is as secure
As anyone else's
Don’t get stuck in the sand
Swim away
Crawl away
Get away
Lighten up
Have fun
