O proud left foot, that ventures quick within
Then soon upon a backward journey lithe.
Anon, once more the gesture, then begin:
Command sinistral pedestal to writhe.
Commence thou then the fervid Hokey-Poke.
A mad gyration, hips in wanton swirl.
To spin! A wilde release from heaven's yoke.
Blessed dervish! Surely canst go, girl.
The Hoke, the poke -- banish now thy doubt
Verily, I say, 'tis what it's all about.

I wish I had written it, but another archaeologist sent it to me in an email: it was his way of complaining that female archaeologists can't dance based on evidence from the last conference....

Of course it is about the dance, what could we be thinking? This is about being tempted by the subtleties of communication...and if she - in her seemingly reckless manner - can lead the socially and educationally challenged into a frantic dervish, more fool those with two left feet

I'm certain Gwally was entirely innocent in his intentions
