my left foot

my left foot starts shaking around
a song by al green comes on the radio.
al green.
let's stay together.
I look at my foot and smile.
hey.
what's up, I ask my foot.
it keeps going,
keeping the beat, suddenly my
mouth begins to move
and i'm singing the song.
my hips are moving,
my head begins to dip
and swing side to side.
i'm all over the room.
let's stay together.
i'm suddenly al green, holding
up a water bottle for a mike
and singing to the crowd
to their ooohs and ahhhhs.
