Olympic Ashes

Olympic Ashes

The People line the streets obediently
Awaiting the crematorial flame
Of appointed divine diversity
(Glancing about lest some perfidious Jew
Contaminate the sweet inclusiveness)
While strength through joy is celebrated again
In torchlit progress international
Celebrating freedom as commanded.
In the end, they but cheer their own oxidation
