Yoga Pose of the Day

My yoga instructor looks absolutely beautiful when executing this pose (demonstrated by someone who is not my instructor). Seriously. She's a living work of art. During a practice recently, I did this same asana. I was rocking it like a hurricane. I'm thinking, "Damn, I feel pretty." But it didn't take me long to remember that I'm a man. I'm not even an androgynous 20-something anymore. I can't look "pretty" in that pose. I look more like a rusty old ship anchor. I even have barnacles in places the sun don't shine.

Edit: All right then. Pictures without barnacles. This is me without make-up and special effects. What did I tell you? This is me gussied up and with a helping hand.

I hope you're right. Pictures added.
