Check, Please

Why spend big bucks to join a fitness club when you can get a good workout and more by cutting down and dragging stubborn scrub and pulling vines from trees to work your core? An added bonus: letting your spouse do a tick check, pre-shower, of course. Although you won’t be using all that tech, you’ll pride yourself in getting something done and your hard work comes with its own reward, for clean-up is the best part of the job.
A Dorsimba: 12 lines with an abab quatrain in iambic pentameter, 4 lines of "short and snappy" free verse, and 4 lines of blank verse
