I am in shape, round is a shape...

FITLESS…


 


What is fitness anyway?


 


Going out and running, walking or biking everyday?


 


I prefer to be the opposite, yes I am fitless,


 


My pants they fitless,


My shirts do also fitless,


Even my shoes do seem to fitless…


 


I seem to fitless through doors,


Especially those doors that spin,


Quite tight in those spaces so I therein do fitless too…


 


Elevators are a problem as well,


With more than one person, I am taking up more space,


Could that be the reason the other riders I do embrace?


 


When told I do fitless, I tell them to get out of my space,


They say to go there is no other place,


So they have to do what they have to do, just get off my case…


 


I have a friend who is into fitness, he runs; he lifts (weights, not just a bottle),


He says I am all out of shape, but I tell him,


I am a great shape, I am round, better to be so, I can therein straddle the ground…

(the word “fitless” coined and trademarked and copy-writed by this author, no use other than its intended use, as a definition to those of you who are as out of shape as he…)
