Preparation
beyond even knowing
the evidence is showing
we’ve been enabled to do
even more
olympic performances
cast competition’s importance
in an entirely new light
all efforts were celebrated
a oneness was orchestrated
no separation was spoken
at all
arms were interlinked
we were shown we’re on the brink
of understanding what humanity can do
now let us carry it thru

Pericles
a student of history
can delve into the past
to understand the life of Pericles
and his role that was cast
ocular* success
as he pursued his visions
when life itself
influenced his decisions
directional changes
ocular revisions
influencing an era of
an Athenian Golden Age
times of great change

Spoilers
what is it that distorts
our belief in the past?
what was new information
or is it how it was cast?
the shock of understanding
that change now must come
what damage has happened
and can it be undone?
