Marika, this one’s for you.
Briar was right, it was a dancing kitty, not a cow.
This is the season of celebrating independence, so get out there old people and
shake a tail feather! Shake your money maker! Shake it like it’s got pepper in it!
Shake it like it’s Dairy Queen! Shake it like a Shaker barn raising! Shake it like Vegas dice! Shake it like a Pop-O-Matic bubble! Shake it like it ain’t your baby! (Not really)
Shake it like downtown ‘frisco in 1906! Shake it like Pompeii! Shake it like you’re scared!
Put it under your armpit like a Polaroid! Shake it like it kept your change! Then rattle and roll!
thanks, little monkey!

Your “shake it” statement reminds me of both Allen Ginsberg’s “Howl” poem and Claes Oldenburg’s “I am for art”…..we’ve already discussed Claes earlier.

Thanks brother! I’m all shook up.
I was just thinking of all the ways to say “dance” in various songs, and thought I’d try to invent a few extra. Of course I missed the obvious one…shake it like you have Parkinson’s Disease.
