In these powerfully moving poems, Kevin Roberts recounts his fight against cancer. Roberts takes us from his early feelings of denial, the doctor's fateful moment of diagnosis, his three years of treatment with chemotherapy and radiation and finally, his remission from the disease. Roberts renders the entire experience in such simple yet powerful language that one cannot help being caught up in the intensity of the struggle to defeat the demon disease.
