Gershon Wolf Poet Free verse

In the Daze of the Dance Craze

   I’d never seen a Fox Trot
      nor a Jittery Bug
   Though whenever I’d Twist
      in agony I’d Shout

   But when a Hully became a Gully
     and Monsters like Potatoes were Mashed
   This Jerk got on his Pony ~
     and Loco Motioned those Stoned Phonies

Don Gershon Wolf April 15, 2024 at 7:56 PM ha, ha. i was also way too timid to ask girls to dance. Would've stepped on their toes anyway. ~ Size 14 shoes inn 7th grade.
