The new sinewy me

And then it struck me,

may be it wasn’t me

who I was to blame,

the other me was the

one responsible.

The other me had a regular

vision about a girl, a regular

he said, she in his dreams.

She looked anything but a girl,

he called upon me, as I dozed

on my water bed.

She was worried, he could tell,

and I knew that, as he kept

bugging me about her.

He followed her, now the

visionary girl, not a vision

anymore.

He went behind her like

an obedient doggie;

a doggie, he was

trying to poke her butt.

He kept following her

as he dragged me behind

him, and my weight he said

was a constant threat.

True, I wasn’t light for him

and then he said, we need

to make a deal.

A deal, I was awe-struck

by his clarity of thought,

which I declared to be

his cocky humor,

that brought me girls

sometimes.

And now, the deal,

yeah, the deal

of enormous loss,

was a great blow

to my poor belly.

And now,I’m struck

on the never stopping

treadmill, taking turns

to blow the girls

with the other me’s

cocky humor

and the new sinewy me.
