Ode to a shower after a long hard workout at the gym on a beautiful Saturday morning

make it hot
really hot
one hand in
just to test
move the curtain
pull the trigger
rain
foot to mat
calf
thigh
back
head
hair
all in
relief
pours over
lean back
arch
close eyes
open mouth
catch some
hydrogen oxygen
loosen up
make it hotter
reach
lather rinse
repeat
breathe in
get out
wrap in cotton
pulse
blood forced
through veins
stand
dry
