My BJJ Valentine

February 14, 2008

bjj gi

Roses are red,
violets are blue,
I’m lucky to have a girl
who puts up with my jiu-jitsu

The FightWorks Podcast headquarters
our small apartment be
yet you still tolerate my insistence
on air drying my just-washed gi

I ponder new moves
whether I’m awake or asleep
As boring as that makes me,
you never say a peep

My body is never
fully injury free
but you still indulge my requests
for nurturing pity

A Roger, Xande, or Jacare
I’ll prob’ly never be,
but you win the absolute division
of my heart’s Mundial tourney

Got something to say?
