My NHS YouTube video
My NHS
I loved my NHS
a child of the early days
growing old with it
but I fear I’m losing it
like me, it is falling apart.
Left on a gurney
no one takes care
my cries unheeded
staff diluted
just like their gravy.
Will I wait for family
just to give me food
to turn me over
to wipe my arse
because there is
no paperwork
to cover this.
I see the day
hospitals in crisis
having their own
‘JustGiving ‘ page
or this ward is sponsored
by Nandos or KFC.
Oh well!
No operation for me.
No treatment for me.
You see
I’m of no value
I’m Sixty Five.
