Tuesday, April 20, 2004 Shakespeare hokes the pokey Here is The Bard's take on a famous dance: THE HOKEY POKEY by William Shakespeare O proud left foot, that ventures quick within Then soon upon a backward journey lithe. Anon, once more the gesture, then begin: Command sinistral pedestal to writhe. Commence thou then the fervid Hokey-Poke. A mad gyration, hips in wanton swirl. To spin! A wilde release from heaven's yoke. Blessed dervish! Surely canst go, girl. The Hoke, the poke - banish now thy doubt Verily, I say, 'tis what it's all about. Thanks to Gary at Country Keepers for finding this gem. A infinite jest most excellent. Alacrity and abandon, thou twins, get thee to the boards; trod them hence. posted by Mark Butterworth | 2:08 PM | |
