Add and Subtract

i'm two years
too old

maybe a few
more but

i wasn't
told

so i find
myself

dancing
a waltz

but she's
jiggling

salsa in front
of me

though i'm aware
the timing isn't

clear but clearly
i'm out of step

with the
times

Now we have to learn the Floss. Oops to late, that’s oh so 2018.

I can't dance at all.
