ROAD TO RIO
Sights set, ready to behold,
A plethora of talents that will go on show
In a city that is well known
For its lovely latinas and footballing ‘pros’
Ready we are, can’t wait for Re-owe
But not without obstacles,
From constant drug battles
Marring the sport, the few bad apples
That can never break free, from the mental shackles
The persistent villains,
The superheroes are task to tackle
Nevertheless we still await,
Medals in abundance, to celebrate
Moments in history that will resonate
Like the vibrations hitting the pot covers make
Footprints in the sand of time create
Singing and chanting the name of our very greats
But thrills is not without spills
So get that cabinet stocked with pills,
When cometh the spoiler you want to kill
Who has worked his socks off in his bid
Even when for him the stage was not built
But opinions after the fact, value nil
