I run six-to-eight miles a day, plus weights and aerobics in the lunch hour. I also lie a lot, which keeps me thin.

I think aerobics are great, of course, but it just bores me out of my mind.

I have been through various fitness regimes. I used to run about five miles a day and I did aerobics for a while.

The word 'aerobics' came about when the gym instructors got together and said: If we're going to charge $10 an hour, we can't call it Jumping up and down.

The Denial Of A Health Problem

tomorrow when we meet again
i will take off my clothes and show you
the tightness of my chest
my arms flexed
my fingers crossed

i'll show you a hundred push-ups
a set of sit-ups
i will do an hour of aerobics
a dance and a jumping jack

you will think that i am healthy
less the tumors and their sealed lips
i am not telling myself that someone is dying.

Metabolism

Heard of metabolism?
Derivative of Metabolic.
No magical schism,
Just little scientific.

To lose the weight
Experts have said
Exercise and diet
Calories burn on quiet

It sounds so simple,
And yet it's complex.
To rid of dimples,
And get ripples.
Muscles toning,
Strength training.

If you like Aerobics,
Not for the phobic,
High on impact,

The Value Of Having To Write A Poem Or Two

don't you know
that i always feel so alive
after writing
a poem or two?

it is as though
i have not exhaled for years
as though
i have only learned to inhale
at this moment

cool fresh air fills my lungs
a dance song in my heart
aerobics for my veins
a view of the landscape of rivers
and hills and a house beside
with chimney
blowing its smoke for
the breakfast menu

London Olympics 2012

As prowess swears it will transfix,
People's anticipation peaks,
From shows of strength to aerobics,
Men and women sport toned physiques,
Competitors do not relax,
Whilst honing each refined reflex,
Sporting careers reach their climax,
Sweat coats the skin and muscles flex,
People gather to show support,
While athletes on their marks get set,
We see the very best of sport,
Which we are sure not to forget,
As each event's about to start,
One's brought to the edge of their seat,
The years of preparation plays its part,
So that the athletes can compete.

My Faith In You

My faith in you demands coverage by the sands
That speak like grains of sand to invent into lands.
My coping subdues your coping, sense the snow
That fell on this country, I was never tired a day ago.

I am submerged by cold, by actual bricks,
To nights they reign supreme, like aerobics.
Master the loss of weight according to belief
And knowledge in mixture, this may be brief.

I am sensible, I have gravity on my side,
For this is Earth and the atmosphere is supplied
With air of oxygen and love, like and trust,
It just brings the merry city to the freshest.

Universal Human

(*original in Telugu by Papineni SivaSankar)

No, not physically challenged

But he, who challenged physics

He who emerged victor

Over the paralyzing ‘motor neuron’

With his intellectual work-out

He who stabilized

The powdered sounds of speech

With the speech-synthesizer
