Men Becoming Women
What I'm about to write may be offensive to some people
But I am absolutely appalled by what's happening at the Olympics
Men playing on women's teams concealed by their national dress
Not being discovered while undergoing a cursory examination
As incredulous as this may seem, it is happening
The true spirit of the Olympics has long been destroyed
By this “win at any cost” or “by any means” attitude
Once a big fan who took pride when my country achieved success
The true spirit of the games has become shrouded in controversy
Oh, how times have changed
