Dancing Queen

I am the dancing queen.
Music enters me
like a symphony.
Into my ears,
then straight
to my toes.

Starts off in my feet,
then my body moves.
Like a chain reaction,
I've often proved.
Can't stay still...
I am overcome.

Like a drum,
I keep the beat.
My DNA reacts..
reverberates.
It's from my dad,
The Music Man.

"Vertical expression for
horizontal desire"??
It's been a while....
I'll soon expire.
Home alone, my King
has left the building!!
