Yin and Yang in the Weight Room

Poet David Allan Evans and "Yin and Yang in the Weight Room."

By David Allan Evans

Yesterday, it was endings and beginnings.
Tomorrow, let’s say it’s joy and sorrow, or
kindness and unkindness. Here’s an iron rule:
on any given day, if you intend to lift only
beginnings, or kindness, or joy, you’ll fail,
regardless of the strength of your spotter, or
the fierceness of your grunts. But don’t sweat it.
Just keep on lifting, and remember that all
of those contraries stacked on opposite ends
of your double grip always go up and come
down together, and weigh exactly the same.

THE CARNIVAL, THE LIFE

David Allan Evans‘ vision is virtually limitless. Born of the great expanse of South Dakota and touching locales as distant as Mexico, China and the Isle of Man, Evans’ expression of that vision is as subtle as it is encompassing. THE CARNIVAL, THE LIFE (Settlement House Books, 2013) is a meditation on a life well lived.
