Muscular...

I am not,

Seems I pull more muscles than I got,

Not am I here complaining,

Just is my life, yes, my lot…

Cannot lift a great deal,

Except on a fork, yes a meal,

My TV remote does give me exercise,

My thumb & forefinger don’t tell lies…

What shall I do, with my muscles so pulled?

In my back, in my chest, and yes in my groin too,

Is this the beginnings of old age?

Will I now become and forever be an old sage?

Dispensing knowledge, blessing those in a cage,

All this does nothing but increase my rage,

Better to just get past it and turn the page…
