I buff the bike seat with my bum
pedaling with intensity
the cycle moves me toward my goals
stationary though it be.

I buff the barbell with my hands
calloused palms on knurly steel
the heavier the load I lift
the less weighed down my spirits feel

I wash the floor with pools of sweat
through workouts challenging and tough
but in the end, it’s all worthwhile
my washboard abs are really buff
