Something is growing

From beneath

A tumorous being

Of tissue and teeth

Another lump

Yet it seems alive

It needs your blood

To survive

A body within your body

A tumor with a life of its own

Teratoma

Teratoma

Different cells

Grow and co-exist

Surgery required

To remove the cyst

Fetus in fetu

Parasitic twin

Come the day of birth

Who will win?
