Happy Health Buff
i watch my diet, my weight,
lift weights, jog and sprint,
do crunching sit-ups,
shape and sculpt myself
into a glistening statue
of health, of youthfulness,
hoping to stay that way
even for the shortest while
before i shall join the ashes
when this dream is over,
with a smile and crossed fingers
