Crocheted Coral Reef by Tori Auerhan

I've been heading down a bit of a rabbit hole lately looking at incredible free-from crochet. Check out this gorgeous art work from Tori Auerhan. If you click through to Tori’s Instagram page (linked below) you will see some many amazing things, including a coral reef that glows in the dark! Inspired much??

To a cancer cell

You come into existence with a profound sense of greed.

You're not a wolf among sheep, not quite.

Even if that predator were to don the pure-white hide of the flock, its teeth would give it away, yellow and sharp.

You are far more insidious, a talkative student in a library, among other students.

Before you know it, you have multiplied, and now everyone is talking in this once-still place of scholarship.

Is my body a place of learning? Yes, surely.

Billions of chemical reactions, the beauty and complexity of cellular function, catalyzed in the medium of life.

Sense organs receive stimuli with faithful prowess, electricity sparks along imagined axons, my brain receives, processes, passing the information along.

My body can adapt, but not to you.

You don't even know that you are an invader, a destroyer, a betrayer of genetic code thousands of years in the making, an age-old nemesis.

You must live, thrive, double and triple, and in doing so, I must recede.

I must surrender life to you, casual, eager invader, but you don't see that this is the least of it.

You tunnel, obliterate, spread your malign influence in a kingdom that should belong to me. To battle you, I must destroy further parts of myself, offerings at the altar of chemotherapy, surgery, radiation.

I must surrender my sleeping self to the hands of doctors, to surgical tables, to brilliant lights that show all the tender flesh I am made of, to knives and knives and more knives.

I emerge, pared away, little more than a husk meant to build a foundation on, all because of you.

In all of this, you are blameless, a simple forgery, a mistake, an over-expression of proteins that should never have been given such a message.

And you have such greed.

Ugly, ugly little cancer cell, how I wish you, more than any variation of life, would shrivel and die away forever, under the unforgiving sun of my rage.
