Polka

"Polka will never die" - Jim Butcher, Dead Beat


Polka, I think, will never cease.
I am watching the Palladium today.
The dancers will enjoy the fun,
And butchers will put aprons away.

They love lively dancing.
It helps them disconnect
From fevered hours of mincing.
They really hoped their Madams
Wanted meat today!

That was this morning...
Now they 'moon' at polka,
Trying to avoid the meaty smell
Around the communal (why?) T.V.
