The Inevitability



The cancer
In my head,
Aches intolerably,
Gnawing at my skull,
Threatening,
Scaring me
With inevitability.

Only a matter
Of time,
Before it creeps
Thru the sodden layers,
Killing me.

What a total bummer, terribly well expressed; especially effective, pehaps, is the "sodden layers" image.
