Planking
Outstretched on all toes and both elbows
How long will the body remain suspended, only a man's will knows
Blood pressure and stress coming down
In this ephemeral stillness, better health is found
With deep breaths in and long breaths out
Better posture and balance are achieved, no doubt
Elevated focus, awareness, and a waistline that's shrinking
Never mind the stoically static body that's away from the floor, just know the owner is planking
