looking back i was so deeply tanned it was almost horifying.
and i would do weights and learn acrobatic techniques
and walk like an ape.
when i walked into a room,
the conversation stopped; a monster from hell.
i walked down the street like my feet would break the pavement.
i picked up cars by the front bumper and
shadow boxed with extraordinary speed.
now i slump, pale,
the muscles shrank,
coughing and
drinking endless coffee and beer.
but people hang on my every word; my mind a dirty sabre.
drawing more and less from life.
what a ride,can i get off now?
