Other than perhaps the grammar, I find it impossible to imagine how
anyone could be offended by, for example, this one:

 Strive to the pass of high mountain	 
 Cross in the shallow side of the wide ocean	 
 Do not give up because of distance	 
 Will certainly reach if walks	 
 Do not discourage of human	 
 Shall overcome if you try

You may as well be offended by Rocky.
