After an Excellent Workout
After an excellent workout, the creative side overwhelms—
Is life just a glow,
Only stars in my night’s sky?
The moon always beams its best side-
Ya know, the big smile, not the rear-end moon.
Every day’s sunshine, 72. Maybe 74.
The dog adores you,
Crunching the cheap cookies you feed her,
Peeing and pooping on cue.
The cat quits shredding the couch,
And walks around purring,
And rubbing your ankles,
And doesn’t complain when you loft her into the closet.
The droopy tomato plants sprout flower buds.
And stand, amazingly, ramrod straight-
Like, well, you know whose thingy should.
Even the giant deer spares the roses,
Munching stinkshrooms instead.
Hoof prints everywhere.
But, what the heck, the lawn needed aerating.
You pay a fortune for that.
Speaking of pampering,
What the heck am I doing?
Spoiling myself?
Maybe
I’m happy enough
To cherish what if
And what I know.
After an excellent workout, the creative side overwhelms—
