First there’s the Island where one wants to clasp the other close to the bosom, 
the other wants to push those itching hands as far away as possible. Neither 
know what they want in the end. Everybody’s having fun watching them gyrate.

Then there’s the couple across the pond. One wants to build a wall at any cost, 
emergency declaration, billions, veto no matter. The embarrassed well dressed 
partner more concerned about not looking like a fool, keeps on nixing the 
village idiot’s attempt to dance.

Move over to the Asian version. Dotard takes Rocket Boy to the floor in some 
gay abandon. RB has no intention to dance, just wants the pleasure of having 
Dotard ask him. So in simulated pleasure they take a few steps and soon 
discover the other has bad breath. They quickly part, no kiss and make up 
resulting.

Shift to the hotspot where one wrong move can send both dancers to kingdom 
come. The gent gets one high-heeled kick out of nowhere. In return he feels for 
underwear to rip off but finds the lady has worn none. Both claim to have 
violated each other. Neither seems the worse for wear.

Coming closer to Goa, look at the lady with power in her hands. Controls 
everything but not in a position to dance. Ten gents swoop in hoping that when 
she falls on the floor, one will be the lucky one to claim the crown. The lady 
is not dying anytime soon. The ten gents wonder what move to make.

Finally there’s the one in the mountains. Any one who has ever tried to dance 
with her has come to grief. Mongol, Tartar, British and Russian have all been 
kicked where it hurt the most. The American hoped to dance where others would 
merely run. The lady might have gone older but she wasn’t any milder. Bye, bye 
blackbird I’m going home where dancing the tango doesn’t kill me. I should have 
learned from Vietnam.
 
Roland.
