Cells, Genes…Mutations!!


Cells, I don't know, it's all about cells!
*****************
Oh yes, its true you know!
These things above cause concern,
And can make the body all mess up,
And into a mutant we can turn!!

So it seems that my parents had a gene,
That was passed on to me!
Very nice of them really…
But it ain't a nice one you see!

Cos this one caused me to mutate!
Errrm, I think that one's a word?
Well, ok, I'm a mutant!
I guess that you've already heard?

Well it's in my other poem!
So I guess if you've read it you do!
And if you didn't know, you do now!
Cos my prolific-ness is coming through!

I had 2 brain tumours, yep,
Got a ruddy huge hole in my head!
No plate, no protection, honest!
I'm really lucky I'm not dead!

Then I got another 2 last year,
Grew right through my mouth, oooh!
The flipping roof part of course!
Cos that's a bony part too!

Cos these very rare tumours!! Yeah!!
They only grow on bone you see!
And since my genes are mutated,
They can grow all over me!!

So  those 4 particular ones,
Lets hope there is no more!
Cos honest, I'm getting weary of stitches,
18 operations now! I'm keeping score!

But this other tumour that grew…
On the top of my little head,
They took it off 8 weeks ago…
Did a good job too! it has to be said!

Well that is also another rare one!
But not the same kind as the other 4!
This one is rare worldwide too!
But though it's genetic, not like before!

Cos this wont don't make me a mutant!
It just caused a pain in my head!
And like I say, it's really ok,
Cos really, I'm very lucky I'm not dead!

So if you get a tumour, or 3,
And maybe even more than that too!
Never give up the fight, oh no!
Cos you'd have to be tough like me!

Never say never, never give in!
And when you can say it and do it,
That's when you win!!
Like me!
