Athletes

Athletes are built to be hefty
Athletes are built to be strong
Athletes have beefy, sleek buttocks
That look like two plums in a thong.

Athletes can lift heavy objects
Athletes can bend metal bars
Athletes are utterly handy
For opening tightly screwed jars.

Athletes’ own muscles have muscles
Athletes have dolphin-smooth skin
Athletes drink protein for breakfast
And say to themselves: “I will win.”

Athletes are tougher than bison
Athletes are swifter than birds
But they don’t write poems about athletes
‘Cuz that is the niche of the nerds.
