Poem: State of the Art Cancer


Funny poem by Carol Miele:
State of the Art Cancer
by Carol Miele
I have ‘state of the art' cancer,
For every question there's an answer.
Individualized chemotherapy? We got it!
Targeted therapy? No prob...we got it!
Want it given through a port?
Or injected in your butt?
We can give your chemo with a pill,
‘Oh....my heart be still!'
Want to join an experimental trial?
Our goal is to go the extra mile!
Our Über modern infusion center has it all,
Your own TV, computer, and even a waterfall!
We guarantee our Oncology Team is first rate,
And their knowledge base and certs are up to date.
Our nurses are so compassionate & caring,
They'll comfort you when treatment's overbearing,
We are a comprehensive cancer center,
Offering ‘state of the art' care to all who enter.
Sleek MRI equipment and ultra cool scanners,
We hired the very best architects and planners.
Rapid turnaround time on results of tests,
And our radiation treatment's the very best.
But most of all, we offer care you can afford,
I was so impressed, I jumped onboard!
Wait! Just one more thing, I have a question,
They nod with uncurbed enthusiasm, no hesitation.
When will there be a cure for my cancer?
Oh! Sorry, for that we have no answer.
