Emma Tattenbaum-Fine

Thing 1

I do not like doping, 

not one little bit.

The Olympics should have none of it!

I do not like it from the Greeks,

I like it not from Cul-de-Lik.

I do not like it from Dibble-dee-Laine.

I do not like dopers from the Ukraine.

Why bother do they, the Lirks and the Teys,

to shoot hormones!  This mess!  It never pays!

And it serves them right, as wrongs often do,

that now they’ll sit out, and pay wrongdoer dues!

These crummy cheats now — simply will not compete.

They will sit on their rumpus and hang up their cleats!

They’ve mocked their sport 

and this is sad,

‘cause worldwide sport

is the PEACE we’ve had.

Thing 2

But if you’re from a country of sadness,

of violent protests and communi-badness,

perhaps there’s more pressure, 

when ‘ere you run ,

to be very fast

and to have zero fun!

And the Olympics your only way out may be,

so this news will hurt you most painfully:

they’ll catch your cheating rump,

just you wait and see,

when they hand you a cup

and they force you to pee!

And your life will still suck!

And you’ll still be so poor!

But with even less sympathy than you had before….

Thing 1 & Thing 2

I do not like doping.

I don’t like it one bit.

Thing 2

The Olympics are special

Take this TIME OUT and think about it.
