In Revising
In revising myself,
will I be better, faster
or worse?
Will I get the attention of everyone
I think I just can’t live without?
Will a kinder exterior
hide a bitter interior- will a
flatter stomach
iron my wrinkles out?
I know that I want to
Be All That You (I) Can Be-
does this mean I join the ARMY?
With my yoga and my crunches
the new and the old
all mesh together to produce
what is sold
on t.v., in magazines.
In revising myself,
will I, too, be sexy?
Perfect Bodies…
but they have no minds.
Perhaps before revision, I’ll save a hard copy…
