Exercise demons

 

I thought I'd exercise my demons,

send them on a little run,

until their little red legs are screaming,

I'd make their lives less fun.

Made them do press ups

 until their arms were sore,

now they have muscles

like that Norse god Thor.

 

This didn't go as intended,

I got them doing squats,

their little legs bent.

When the session ended,

I noticed to my dismay,

that the demons had now grown tree trunks

they were already in tomorrow

I was stuck in today.

 

So, I sent them swimming,

as soon as they dived in

the water started brimming,

bubbling,

then it boiled away, 

evaporated into steam.

A sauna with these demons,

didn't really help with my self-esteem.

 

I tried to exercise my demons,

they have come back so much stronger.

Now they occupy the earth,

not sure I can hold them back much longer,

I really should have checked my spelling.

how can I ever stop them now,

there is no way of telling

but I shall keep trying I vow.
