There are no words. I couldn't find the words. Even in Spanish and English dude, I'm flabbergasted.
Wow.
My arms are my nouns. My legs are my phrases and clauses. My untamed hips, they are my verbs. Words are not necessary, Leesee, only The Dance. The Dance.
Or it's Hindi. Junior High was a long time ago: I forget.
no wonder the ayatollah was able to cake walk into iran and take the place over in the late sevenies. That was one decadent freaking society.
Did you see the way the godfather dude looked at the singer? I tell you, it would move a goat to the other side of the pasture...
That goat wouldn't be alone. If I know my godfathers -- and mind you, I do -- that guy was one cigarette puff away from telling his henchman, "That one pleases me. Have him washed and brought to room. Tell him to get ready to writhe."
Now I know what happened to that lime green dress I sold at the yard sale.
By the way, the Snow White and dwarf poster is on the wall, because...?
My artsy is nearly as fartsy as it once was, so my interpretation could be wrong, but I think at that point in the movement, he's dancing to make a statement about the power of non-traditional families to free women from the oppression of the capitalism-serving nuclear family and the gender roles necessary to perpetuating it. Snow White was adding, albeit subtly, to the message.
Granted, after he did that thing with the boots, it was unnecessary, but who can fault an artist for excess.
(And, no, I'm not going to leave this alone.)
Of course you won't. If you did, then you would not be that wild ass of a man, with you hand against everyone, and everyone's hand against you, living at odds with all of your kin.
