Gaudy Poem

Well… this is what I came up with. It ain’t pretty, but it will get me a grade for turning it in on time (which is all that counts).


Sweat raining down like a waterfall
Intense heat penetrating the body
Kinetic energy pulsating the muscles
Muscles on fire with stress and tension
Push, pull, Push, pull
Blind to the pain
Ignorant to the ripping
Deaf of the muscles crying for relief
Breath in, Breath out
Coach screams like a master of bellows
The pain is nothing
Drone in the heat keeps pushing
Pain is fear
Fear is weakness
Brave the pain
Alienate the weakness
