Short Cut
Short Cut
Many wear Lycra as clothing for sweaty display and for fashion
yet in this post-modern world I sport retro with ultimate passion
No need to retrieve my gear from nostalgic attics of long lost time
running for fitness and pleasure stems from old fashioned paradigm
Healthy mind in healthy body do not require micro fibre bubbles
no sports bra for man boobs no logos when jumping through puddles
‘Just do it’ I posit life is no stage no statement but rather for fun
my ragged torn shorts will suffice please admire my legs and my run
Ideally I wished to naturally perspire and perform in the nude
but I guess despite my glorious curves some might consider it rude
When exhaustion sets in and my muscles and mind are on fire
I settle for what’s in the dresser and not how some judge my attire
