Arena

the challenge of the basic
task lies ahead
I promised myself yesterday
I would do fifty sit-ups
but had to stop at fifteen
and take a break before
the next ten, which then led
to five, not quite making the quota
nevertheless, I will attempt it one day
the bound of the arena,
the blaze of competition,
or else settle for stands and popcorn.
