THE WALES CANCER BANK

THE WALES CANCER BANK OR
BANC CANSER CYMRU
IN THE NATIVE TONGUE,
CAME TO ASK IF I'D BE NEEDING
ANY BITS THAT MAYBE OVER
AFTER THE OPERATIONS DONE,
I SAID I'M NOT REALLY THE TYPE
TO HAVE WHATS SPARE PICKLED IN A JAR
AND DISPLAYED UPON THE MANTELPIECE
FOR VISITORS TO ADMIRE FROM NEAR AND FAR,
SO WHAT DO YOU PLAN ON DOING
WITH THIS CHUNK OF MY RIGHT LUNG,
THEY SAID IT WOULD BE FROZEN
AND SCIENTISTS COULD APPLY FOR SOME,
IT WOULD HELP OTHERS IN THEIR RESEARCH
IN THE FIGHT AGAINST THE DISEASE,
NOW I'M LIVING IN AMMANFORD CARMARTHENSHIRE
BUT PART OF MY LUNG LIVES IN A CARDIFF CITY DEEP FREEZE.

SO FOREVER THERE WILL BE A PART OF ME A CITY BOY
NOW I'VE OPENED AN ACCOUNT AT THE WALES CANCER BANK.
