B'Ching 2'08
I don't know why people
Think the Olympics is any good
For changing the world.
I remember when we had
A car accident. That changed
The world; but we got along
Without thinking about it
Very much. Very much I
Wonder why sending two seventy
Year olds to fry in the pan, out
Of the fire, for 12 months, 'coz
They chose to perspire on down to
The Heavenly Court of Applications
For an Official Permit to Protest
In an Officially Designated Protest
Area against the Beijing Olympics
Is indicative of Change in
The world. Then I remember
That car accident. I do not forget
I don't know why people do
Not always come to a full stop
At the right time. I cannot.
Believe the Olympics is Any good.
=========================
[It was reported two seventy year old women were sentenced to 12 months re-education in a labour camp for applying for a Protest Permit, as above stated, their reason being they were evicted from their homes to make way for it. An exceptional Olympics? No: friends of mine in Sydney suffered a similar fate, evicted from homes their landlords willed to rent out for exhorbitant rents in the time period of the 2000 Games, "the Best Ever!!".]
