new sports at the Olympics

they keep
adding more sports to the Olympics.
i was watching
the other
day
when three countries
i've never heard of
were lined
up blowing bubbles
into the air.
the one that made the biggest
and the roundest
bubbles,
that floated the longest
before breaking would move
on to the semi-finals.
in the semi-finals
smoke rings
from a Cuban cigar
would be measured for 
shape and density.
a single cough would cause
immediate
elimination
and a trip to Guantanamo Bay.
the final round involved
big wads
of chewing gum 
from a eucalyptus tree
where each
athlete would
blow bubbles from
their mouth.
popping them only after
the judges
timed them and
checked them out.
