Good Morning Workout
somehow i’ve managed to refrain from
Sweat
and convinced myself that i really did workout
i Didn’t.
i should have rose with the tinging
laced my shoes that don’t fit any more after the birth
harnassed my breasts that are now
Rounder and Heavier
and heaved my newly shaped post baby body onto the
Workout Mat
in my living room, allowing the TV trainers to tell me
I can Do it!
most days i can force myself up with images of
too Much fat lingering on all parts of the body and lycra-ed in by my
Bathing Suit
but not Today.
i lay watching you sleep on the monitor
wondering if you would follow the old or new scheudle
before
i rose to a pseudo work out
while listening to you
Breathe.
