Ode to Cornelius

I might  have been a famous dancer in an earlier life.  Might have been.
I love dance.
I envy dancers.  Dancer's bodies.  Dancer's lives.
I love it.  All of it.  All kinds of styles.
I still love my leg warmers I wore in the 80's.  They made me feel like a dancer.
I might still wear them around the house...maybe, maybe not.
Gotta dance.
Someone loan me their dancer's body, please.
My dream is writing checks my body can't cash.  
But I still dream.
In my head, I can move like a Fosse girl - the younger versions of Reinkin, MacClaine, Chita, Rita...Even Tommy "Too Tall Texan" Tune.
I love the dance.
I just love the. dance.
In my mind - I leap.  I fly.  
Don't judge me.
