Jack awoke in his usual pain, un-
daunted by it. We're all gonna die
someday is his morning mantra these days.
Isolate the variable, anything
you do to one side of the equation
you gotta do to the other. Practice
zen, eat less, an empty belly's holy.
These are the rules for old men waiting.
On the other hand, attachment to self
and to things to do. Clean the house, watch for war.
Count syllables, teach English to immigrants
from Slovakia or Syria.
Advocate vocational education
in the schools. Jack has much to do, a new
administration, low social security.
He goes slow as the day will allow.
Paul played table tennis as part of his rehab,
So accepted an invitation to ‘Come and Try’,
Which saw him selected for a German contest,
To represent Wales ‘cos he’s from Cardiff fab.
That was first bat, his accident was in 1986,
So Paul was chosen for the London Paras,
Where he won the men’s singles bronze,
He was extremely satisfied with his bricks.
In 2013 at the European Championships,
Paul won singles silver, he lost to Will Bayley,
But the two combined irrespectively to win,
The gold medal for the team matches, sticks.
Then he broke his leg, but in 2014 returned,
To gain singles medals in Slovenia, Slovakia,
And together with Rob Davies, gold medalist,
He won a gold in both places, they burned.
Paul made the ParalympicGB Team in Rio,
Where he was accompanied by his wife, carer,
Who sadly passed away suddenly afterwards.
Son Jonathan plays TT in Wales U21 phono.
Sara played basketball in squad ParalympicsGB,
At Euros, at Worlds and at Commonwealth Games,
In Manchester and in Melbourne, and had TT victory,
At the Paralympics in London with her team-mate.
Her boyfriend introduced her to table tennis nifty,
And she’s a paralytic, from a virus at the age of 15,
“Meeting people in the same situation as [myself]
was a real eye-opener…it opened up my life again.“
In 2013 Sara and Jane Campbell took the gold,
In the team event class 1-3 in Bayreuth, Germany,
And then she won bronze for herself in the singles,
To ride right onto 2 bronzes in Slovenia, Slovakia.
Illness and surgery were then her disappointing lot,
But she returned in the Lignano Master Open 2016,
To win a fine silver for the team. In Rio, the quarters,
For both singles and team matches. Born 12/04/1990.
David started playing table tennis,
At the age of ten in his local club,
Where his dad worked as a coach,
And where his brother played him.
He was born with a bone disorder,
Rare Multiple Epiphyseal Dysplasia,
And is a graduate of Sheffield Uni,
In Biological Chemistry medical.
He attended Beijing and London,
And won many medals in 2014,
In Italy, Slovenia and Slovakia,
And in Romania 2015 gold, silver.
Then the Euros in Vejle, Denmark,
And David won singles and team,
Bronze, and then in Lignano 2016,
David won bronze and team silver.
In Rio he made the quarter finals,
And was born in Torpoint, Cornwall,
Just before Christmas time in 1989 -
He lives and he trains in Sheffield.

It's the eighteenth of September
The year is twenty twenty-two
I'm on a River Cruise in Europe
With early morning thoughts of you
Eight long months have passed us by
Since the good Lord took you home
You'll always be within my heart
Where ever in the world I roam.
I felt you as we walked upon
The lands of persons' past
Of ancestors you spoke about
I've brought you here at last
To Germany and Hungary
To Slovakia we went
In Austria we hiked around
To Vienna we were sent
Discovered many places
That we only heard about
Through my eyes you saw them
You are with me there's no doubt
The churches and the castles
The cobbled streets were not a bore
Towns were here a thousand years
Some of them for many more
Tomorrow we will end this cruise
And return to present days
Kings and queens of days gone by
Will go back into the haze
This week we will be back again
To the house that is our home
With memories and photographs
Of castles and cathedral domes
Were is the conscience of the world
The world should rise
And embrace peace
We are tired of dying
We are tired of oppression
We are not giving up our land
We are ready to defend our
Our dignity
It does not matter
How tired we get
Our freedom is our goal
And I call on the world
To set us free
Were is the conscience of the world
UK left European Union
With out no blood shed
So was cesko Slovakia too
Now called Czech Republic
Why can't Biafra be shame
Why must my people die
Just to be free
Why must the young be brutalised
On daily bases
Just because they stood their ground
Why can't they leave us alone
Why can't we separate with out
Been ignored to death
So I call on the world
There is a silent genocide
Going on in East Nigeria
Is obvious but ignored
by the higher rankees
It clear but unknown
Will the world keep watching
Us die for nothing
How long will the world
Keep watching genocide like a movie
Were is the conscience of the world
