The Hokey Pokey, Shakespeare Style!

So much dancing in Shrew rehearsal today! (We're working on curtain call.) So in honor of both Shakespeare and dancing, may I present The Shakespearean Hokey-Pokey!
O proud left foot, that ventures quick withinThen 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 doubtVerily, I say, 'tis what it's all about.
Isn't it awesome? (Courtesy of HistoricalLOLS.com)
