The Paralympic Prayer





Dear Starter, and those on a podium

Hallowed be thy games

Paralympics come,

They will be run

On the flat as they are in Stoke Mandeville

Give us this day our DLA

And forgive those that deny our existence

As they fail to forgive us for not getting better

For ours is the wheelchair, the hospital trolley

For ever and ever

Amen.
