I will remember forever
Snoop Dogg
at the Olympic Games
in Paris,
Pictures of him
this area
from being quietly playful
and just funny,
always sociable,
Embrace the spirit of the games
as if it were the beginning of the
Age of Aquarius,
carry the Olympic flame
like many blunt
he is on fire;
Make comments on television
at prime time;
Cripples go
from time to time;
Freestyle raps
as the horses trotted and nodded,
when the audience was infatuated;
Dancing in the stands
as Simone Biles and Jordan Chiles
boogeyed looked up at him
in between I take care of the gymnastics;
fencing and weightlifting;
Swimming with Michael Phelps,
one of the greatest of all time;
Rap at the closing ceremony
with Dr Dre,
I must say
He brought joy to the world
during his time in Paris
on the Olympic stage,
it is so much fun to watch every day,
to which
I find
Snoop would say
“To hell with my nipples”
in his relaxed, carefree manner.
And when I look back,
I wonder
if we earthlings
start
to change our habits,
become more accepting
and tolerant towards each other
in infinitesimal quantities
while we go around in circles
on our small life-giving planet
in the vastness of
the Milky Way.
It certainly seems so.
It certainly seems so.
