Standing outside the studio
I wouldn't say I was terrified
but afraid certainly
a distinction perhaps
important only to me.
Fear not of physical activity
but of the unknown
having done yoga only once
13 years ago when drunk,
not a soothing point of reference.
I felt the tension, sat with it
but was not overcome,
did not flee like once I would
but entered with a friend
and participated, content, happy even.
A small victory perhaps,
but victory none the less.
