I went to that show
where I figured I'd know everyone
and I was already owly
and I knew enough people that I could be Show Kyle
bop and tap one foot and nurse a beer

and then the band played a song
that sounded like Sound System
which is certainly not an insult
but I would rather just hear Sound System

and then He appeared
One Dude Skanking

He skanked like no one was watching
at least I was, because, my dude, that was some skanking
He skanked with abandon, He skanked like the world was ending
He skanked circles around the foot tappers and boppers and beer nursers

it was pretty great

His skanking could melt the heart of the most brutal dictator
His skanking could end world hunger and give snacks to the snackless
one skank to rule them all: His
One Dude Skanking

and then the song ended and the next song didn't have that guitar riff
but that's cool, because One Dude Skanking's gotta keep moving
and I think that He'll be back
when we need him most
when we need
One
Dude
Doing That Thing Where You Walk And Dance To Reggae Or Ska
what do you call it?
