Double Helix
my
mind
spirals
sequences,
takes breaks & recharged
whizzes again while the body
who housed, nourished, shielded, then cautiously gave away
three
lives
decays
steadily
on scans, mammograms
passing down the cancerous cells
that
coil
around
each other
in chains, & like in a nightmare,
grow & multiply in an uncontrollable way
