JOGGING AND WEIGHTLIFTING
 
For aerobic sloth and allergy lungs,
    I do what our president does.
For toothpick arms and playing-card physique,
    I follow a dumbbell routine.

The real reward comes after my shower,
    an effervescent warmth,
yet— this feeling is easier obtained
    via a bottle of Scotch.
