Ode to the Empty Hot Tub

Billions of bubbles
Tendrils of steam
I feel like it’s boiling
The pain out of me

The kinks in my back
The tightness of my thighs
After doing 20 minutes
On the stationary bike

The knot in my shoulder
trying to hold on
But I’m alone in the hot tub
And I’ll stay till it’s gone.

Today was a good day
