Pushups

More
I can always
Do more

Even
When my mind
Says to stop

I can still go
Until
The muscles tear

If not
For my body
Maintaining itself

For what?
For oatmeal
And cribbage

In a wheelchair
Without the strength
To tear myself

Apart
Even if
I wanted to

So why not tear
Starting with my pectorals
While I still can
