Poem 143 of 230: OLYMPICS OR GLOBALISATION?
Largely, I’d say, an Olympic Games is
One nation’s way v. other nations,
During fairly-fought sport competitions -
“Citius, Altius, Fortius.”
So, if all states become multicultural
Or humans become culturally one
(Through migration and globalisation),
Holding Olympics would become null.
