They line up to die
They slide on a frisbee
And death teaches why
They love to go skiing
With toques on their head
They crash on a bunny
Split open their head
They line up at crosswalks
And text as they walk
Long comes a Hummer
To crush them like chalk
They line up for fast food
The golden arch kind
No food value present
You're outta your mind
Bomb people bomb people
Like Christian Dior
Put plastic explosives

So very sad a story. So many unnecessary deaths for vainglory at the Olympics. Competing for glory and deceptive gold is a true tragedy based on unhealthy competition.
Thank you for bringing this to the fore. strikingly

Blessings
Elizabeth.

...I've never laughed so much at "a sad commentary" before.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
