Inside Job

I can't say that this 
Cancer 
Is the first assault  on my mortality, 
and maybe not even the most serious, 

If you count accidents 
From climbing, biking, kayaking, 
Even spelunking--for Christ's sake-- 
All manly pursuits, 
Ones where you can see the danger. 

But this is the first assault 
That's been launched From inside.
