So You Think You Can Dance?

That first stanza is powerful - whale, it pulls the reader in just the way a partner should and from there - they're spinning!   Thank you for joining the party as well.

sometimes tunes sych up with my siezures
some just another fit of tourettes
but if a husky dude can't cut a rug
what's the world coming to
i need arnold
to give a good kneel
so i can give a good hardcore roundhouse
maybe i do the pre empt to a crap shoot too much
the old school 2 step rubbing the beer belly
no splits or harlem shake
but real niggas jus pull up their pants
ill always rockaway after a few tabs
do the worm and the wave if i take too much
run around sporting the metal arm pinwheel
if somebody touches tanya's ass
but even on a decent night
i'm just standing slamming vodka
air guitaring
just like my asshole father

Sounds like you'd party well in and out of the clubs along Bourbon Street and Fremont Street ... all kinds of music and all kinds of dancing - no one gives a shit what you look like as long as you're having a good time ... Dance on!  Thanks for coming.

 "Create"

Escaping the grind, responsibilities far behind
Time to relax, enjoy beauty, should she be so inclined
Group gathered, music playing, quick jive, she intoxicated his mind

White sand, pristine beach, aqua waves, melodic song
Bare bodies, soaking rays, paying homage to the sun god
She lay face up, gorgeous, one of one among the throng

Her quick dance and exit, captivating, arousing one
His eyes, scouring the scene, searching, attempting to rediscover
In the distance, neon orange towel, appropriate canvas, lottery won

He walked, sand squeaking, sandals forgotten, heels burning
Distance conquered, quiet approach, looking down, the question asked
Smiling lips, alluring eyes, she replies 'yes,' both yearning

Her right hand, elegant and tan, patting the towel, inviting
Kneeling beside beauty, hand on hers, his energy relating
Secretly wanting, wishing to know her, all of her, exciting

Standing, hand in hand, a deliberate waltz, speaking of desire and circumstance
Karma, destiny, luck, this discovery turned rediscovery, was it chance
Create opportunities, time is short, adore the moment, live to dance

Love love love .... The last two lines - those could be an anthem for life. The sands of seduction while you  swayed and shimmied with your lover ... Cool!

Thank you all so much for making my first writing competition a pure joy! You're all incredible!

I chose Alexander Case's scribe because of the varied elements of dance and movement ... I could practically hear the guitar and castanets.

Caxton - "wine soaked feet" beautiful words ... Reminded me of a masquerade dance with my love.

Austin_Rura - you took me back to my bad bad boy days ... cool ink.

Special nods to Vee, JohnF and blue_angel.  

Again cheers to all!

LSP, congrats on your first comp and thanks for the honour and for the cool inspiration. Congratulations to the runners up Caxton & Austin_Rura and to all the other brilliant entries from the other poets, including Vee, Mr Feddeler, blue_angel, wale and Light Baron, just to mention a couple more. It was a solid competition and it's great to be part of it. Gratias speciosa mea Musa.
