I blink my eyes
a thousand times
a minute, in hope
that you recognise
the Morse Code I am sending,
don’t try to find me,
quite lost,
quite lost,
a small sudden stare
into the distance
reveals more pain
and torture to come,
the taboo to be broken,
the last vestige of my soul
quite broken,
quite broken,
beat me,
they seem to want
to always inflict more
ridicule, surprised I am
still breathing here
in this cold, unforgiving place,

The next two games would determine if Great Britain would take any part in the quarter finals of the men’s basketball at this year’s Paralympic games. Canada ware now virtually assured a place after their stunning victory over the Germans, who themselves should certainly still qualify despite the set-back.
Only Poland really stood in the way of Great Britain being in the second stage of the completion as the seeming whipping boys of the tournament Japan would not surely do the unbelievable and get points off a resurgent British Bulldogs team.
