To Be A Gymnast MAG
She walks out onto the floor
And salutes the judges.
The gymnast collapses
As flat as an empty balloon.
The murmuring crowd falls silent as the music starts.
Her body slowly inflates.
She dances and she tumbles,
Her arms and legs moving like clockwork,
Not truly realizing what
She's doing.
The music ends.
At the last beat she stops all motion,
A smile frozen on her crimson countenance.
She bolts off the floor to a cheering crowd
Chanting her name.
How great it feels
To be a gymnast.
