time marches on

imperceptibly, relentlessly…

whether I use it well or not

has no influence on its existence

or its passing

33 days of intermittent effort

paired with noodles

and a new job…

equaled minus one pound–

only 99 to go

and as long as I keep on crawling

I’ll smash my goal in around eight years

which is better than never reaching it at all

so I’ll continue my quest

imperceptibly, perhaps,

but relentlessly.

until success is mine.

sexy sixties…here I come!
