The class started
just like any other
mats laid flat
shoes removed.

Pilates proceeds
deep breathing
engaged trans-abdominals same annoying songs as previous 8 classes.

Commence jovial giggles.

Mischievous pelvises
jellyfish legs
my wonderful former housemate
and me, resident class tight ass.

Self-proclaimed overlocker
in a room of hand sewing
thread and needle beauties.

Times like these
need knot
or be forgotten.
