This anniversary of mine isn’t a joyous one
Practicing resilience I’ve had a few victories though
Sometimes I feel tired and long to rest, just rest
Milestones carry no meaning
No-one is ever cured of cancer
No matter the passing of time
One is always on license
What could be more life-affirming than this ongoing
Meditation on death and impermanence?
Perhaps there is cause to rejoice after all
