#cure for cancer

Place Stamp Here

-

Years from now,

technology will likely

eliminate disease;

computers the size

of blood cells will

be injected into our

blood stream with

the sole purpose of

hunting down and

destroying cancer cells.

But years from now,

she thought, is not

today and looking

up at the pale blue

sky—slashed and torn

with vapor trails—she

saw the airplane climbing

through the clouds

and imagined looking

down at herself

from a great height

on her way to

somewhere else.
