Dance With Me


I have always loved to dance
but I never had a dancer's body.
I'm short and chunky.

When I was in High School
I was in Dance Club.
I wanted to be one of the dancers
in the flowing, romantic dance number
at the year's end program,
so I went to a blind "Doctor?" on the Avenues
who put me on 500 calories a day
and injected me with urine from a pregnant horse.
I lost weight, but I got a heart arythmia
and worse yet, I was put in
the comedy dance!

I like to say I have danced on Broadway.
Because I have.

If I have one very definite prejudice in life, it is this:
I think EVERYONE should dance.
