“Back To The Gym”

We’re heading back to the gym. Today we are lifting weights (waits). So prepare to bulk up on your rhyme, because we’re writing a “waiting” poem. Or if you choose, an “uplifting” poem (we can surely use one about now!) Either way, I am here to pump you up!

Let me back in
to the gym. I am
near to fearing
that I have forgotten
how to use the equipment.
Not motivated at home,
though the chair exercises
are immediately at hand.
Even the boringness
of the treadmill would
suffice. Gym is reliable
for icy temperature,
a welcome break from not
having air conditioning
for the past few days.
My Mind feels hazy as the
heat outdoors. Let me
back in. Please!
