Bora born
The high rise crowd _
Down they come
from on high
exercise
in disguise
body types
need a trim
cheaper than
in the gym.
All kind shapes
when it dawns
waddle out
cross the lawn
late bloomers
in their gen
hoping for
firmer blends.
More muscle
with less fat
exercise
helps with that.
Kitchens are
where it's made
lose it there
if you're game.
Mutta rich
most of them
layers of fat
some obsene
in bathers
wrapped in towels
lagoon bound
faces growl.
Unhappy
with their lot
most would trade
health for loot.
This is true
kid you not
this one truth
hits the spot.
Then there's the
yabber crowd
sets of threes
usually proud
of the way
work is worse
holy smokes
work's a curse.
Just takes one
of the three
know it alls
with the free
knowledge run
passerbys
wish they could
flush their eyes.
iPhone bands
podgy arms
do stretch out
while they yarn.
Some may jog
none will run
others ride
just for fun.
