Carcinogens can be found in aisle C.

\nCareless castanets cascade around us.
\nChokecherries and chainsaws caterwaul.
\nCell phones and cicadas seem to call us.
\nCanted carousels have their own wall.
\nContinental cuisine packed in cardboard.
\nCellophane and cake cohabitate.
\nCold cream, chili, coconuts and cordite.
\nCards that cry you must congratulate.
\nCarry-alls that celebrate consumption.
\nCraven chessmen carved of cedar wood.
\nCans that cannot conceal cruel corrosion.
\nChemicals would choke you if they could.
\nCash and carry, credit or cold cash:
\nCancer capital is its own crash.<\/p>\n
