legs shake
body forms
last lap

the noise
retreats
with     every    single rep

six pack
everyone wants them
not the kind from the store

just do it
easier said than done
when it's your own run

top quarter champion

TOP half Chamption

bottom quarter champion

mind wonders—
the refreshing splash
of the chlorinated water

long boarding
I become one with nature
soaring down the path

downward dog
as the instructor passed
I fell

at the gym
working on my fitness
saved an old man

TOP half champion

CHAMPION
 

BOTTOM half champion

permanent ink
tingles
as she flexes her muscles

painful anticipation
bang high up
prepare for splash

staples mend
lacerations
stretched wounds

an apple
forced in my hands
do I dare?

top quarter champion

BOTTOM half champion

bottom quarter champion

sunset—
hear your breaths
feel tension relax

exhausting work out
refreshing shower
eating ice cream in bed

piping hot cocoa
warms the hands
and the heart

m&m's
hold on your tongue
melt away
