Hi !
This is my latest poem. Please comment it. Put your comments both about my poem and sport generally. Maybe your comments will help me to create another poem about sport?
==============================================
~ BUSINESS
Big sport is a ~ business these days
It is a paradox cause at first sight it seems to be so perfect activity
- no blood there
- fair rules
but somehow
I can see there only blood and toilets
And money
Thus I think big sport is a ~ business
And nothing more
When you are on the move
You go forward
You are the best, the winner , the champion
You shape your body to make it better and better
I think
It is not what Ancient Greeks were looking for.
Where is your soul, my dear sportsman?
In a bank account ?
Big sport is the bloodiest business
These days probably
Though no bloodshed there at all
Just a bit
During these Winter Olympic Games
One ski runner
Heavily suffering from asthma
Won 2 gold medals
When this time
she should be in hospital
Probably
How is it possible?
Dear sporstwoman –
how long are you going to live
after these Winter Olympic Games?
What should I think about you?
A winner or a loser?
Who should you be to me?
Big sport is a ~ business these days
And nothing more
Just money and some fair rules
How fair?
