and now for sports

there's always
a country
on the news that's war torn.
the houses
turned to rubble.
half-naked
children in the street.
smoke
from a fire nearby
blowing in the wind.
a helicopter in the sky.
the reporter
with a helmet on
standing in the middle
of it all.
Ukraine,
Iraq, Iran.
Viet Nam,
Selma Alabama,
Detroit.
it's all the same.
it never ends. but
back to you Jim,
and now for the sports.
