All the households lit up
preparing hearty meals
I meditate on the thought
what really drives their wheels
They fear they’ll lose a job
or a lover to go astray
They fear it’ll rain tomorrow
and wash their homes away
Fear is just a word
four letters in a row
I wonder if they know
that Cancer is the foe
All the households lit up
imagining what they fear
so far less of importance
flesh and blood so dear
