half full

she says that she's a cup
half full
kind of girl.
then does a few push ups
and stretches
on the floor.
i'm getting younger
she says, as you stare
at the silver
roots protruding from
the part in her hair.
it's all about a positive
attitude. eating kale
and beans. doing yoga
and meditation.
I bet I could even help
you she says,
not quite touching
her toes, but stopping
near her knees.
here, help me up. I think
i'm done for now.
let's go get that drink.
