the dance studio

you open up a dance
studio and begin to give
lessons.
you only know
the twist, the mashed
potatoes, the jerk
and the fly, but it's a
start. oh, and freestyle,
which is your favorite
after about three
long neck beers.
you can teach slow dancing
too, but that's more of
an advanced lesson.
at first no one comes.
so you paint the room
purple and put up some
black lights. you
open the door
to the street and turn
the music up.
the temptations, the doors,
jimi hendrix,
and janis joplin.
it's hard music to dance
to, so you throw in
james brown,
some beach boys
and the ventures.
who doesn't like beach
music. before long
they start pouring in.
you have a cooler full
of beer in the corner
for those who want
to learn and practice
free style. you're in
business. feet don't
fail me now.
