GLADIATORS — a poem and song by BBB

GLADIATORS

by Bill Kochman

https://www.billkochman.com/Poetry

02-11-2023

Let’s go down to the coliseum,
Our fighters are on the field,
Breaking bones, spilling blood,
If the other guy just won’t yield.

Training hard for many months,
Just wanting to please the fans,
Planning strategies for victory,
Pig skin passes hands to hands.

Oh yes it’s now Super Bowl time,
The testosterone just fills the air,
Macho boys really psyched up,
An ambulance is likewise there.

Pretty girls who are barely clad,
So excite the monstrous crowd,
A play is made, a roar is heard,
Man, those folks can be so loud.

But as for me, I will tell you now,
Yes, I’ll make a small confession,
I am really not into all that stuff,
No, I just do not like aggression.

The spirit of sports is so like war,
Taking down guys in order to win,
There’s so much pride & arrogance,
Some would even say that it’s a sin.

Posted on April 3, 2026 by Bill Kochman

#BeYeHoly #Sanctified #Sanctify #BeHoly

In the New Testament Scriptures, the words “sanctify”, “sanctification” and “holy” are derived from the Koine Greek words “hagiazo”, “hagios” and “hagiasmos”, which mean to dedicate, consecrate and set apart for service to God. This is what Saints are. We are separated from the world, in order to serve the Lord.
