Cancer is a curious thing...Nobody knows what the cause is,

Cancer is a curious thing…
Nobody knows what the cause is,
Though some pretend they do;
Its like some hidden assassin,
Waiting to strike at you.

Childless women get it,
And men when they retire.
It – W. H. Auden

Nobody knows what the cause is, though some pretend they do; it like some hidden assassin waiting to strike at you. Childless women get it, and men when they retire; it as if there had to be some outlet for their foiled creative fire. – W. H. Auden
