CHARLESTOWN Nevis, October 16th, 2013 -- A businessman, Earl “Pancho” Morton has paid a tribute to all those persons who died of and are affected by cancer by reciting a moving poem at the finishing point of the Pink Lily walkathon at the Pinney’s Beach.
Below is the poem he wrote recently.............
That dreaded, ugly monster,
it has come to devour, claiming Jah children in an unprecedented number.
In defense, we have to bond and fight like soldiers,
can't allow this demon to take over....
So in the mean-time, while we still seem to have some time,
and since these times seem to be the real dread times,
let's fight like we're fighting to combat crime,
make this the real fight of our lifetime,
but like no other time in our time...!
Steer clear of deadly chemicals,
try to keep it natural, keep an eye out for that prowling scavenger,
be cautious while we search for an answer,
it is attacking like a rabied vulture,
hard to track 'cause it roams like a panther.
Avoid unhealthy additives,
go back to the way our forefathers used to live, our immune system has become fragile and sensitive,
why buy food contaminated with additives,
when we can grow our own to eat and live,
and still have enough to give?
We don't have to be rich to eat healthy, grow your own food to feed your family,
train the kids to eat consciously,
tell them to watch what they put in their belly, while we condition our minds to live more stress-free.....
This monster is breaking up families,
acting jealous and even claiming our babies,
once diagnosed and you have this plague for sure,
it's the same for the young and the old, as it is for the rich or the poor, Its like all your dreams get thrown out the door,
knowing to yourself that there is no certain cure.....
Popping pills often leaves the family broke, we watch our hard earned savings go up in smoke,
at the end of the day they don't seem to work, this plague is really taking us for a joke,
try natural herbs, we can steep and drink, and though I won't suggest that you smoke,
some claim that its helpful to take a toke.....
Reduce the risk of chemotherapy, too expensive and the treatment isn't cell friendly,
you lose your hair and then slowly your body, this beastly criminal wants to drive us into poverty.
Shift the focus of the research center, research natural foods to build resistance against the monster,
and since we can't google or research a cure in the encyclopedia,
the solution is to eat wiser to live healthier,
Failing that, only God has the answer,
to this ugly dreaded Monster called CANCER!!
