The Modern Dance

Five women are imitating flamingos

Propping one leg upon another

Looking this way and that

Synchronized jerky movements

What is the purpose of this nonsense?

To distract the cows

Author's Notes/Comments: 

This is inspired by a photograph of a dance troupe of elderly women.  The pose they were in was frankly bizarre and flamingo-like.  There weren't any cows in the picture, of course; that's jsut my imagination running away with me again.
