A physical trainer at my gym
once took me aside
& began asking me
a lot of philosophical questions.
Like, ‘How much could I dead lift?’
‘I don’t know, I replied.
“I guess, we’ll have to continue this conversation —
in Heaven!”
And then, in a twinkling,
I was gone.
Never to return.
II.
Though I would continue
paying monthly gym fees
for another fourteen years.
Didn’t see it coming…
