fuzzy sobriquet

hey, hey!
oh, hey, hey!
deadmau5 is here
to stay!  or at the
very least they’re
here today! nthat
was a test, by the

way.  so what’s your
answer, class?  [you
answer.]  aha!  so!
and very well!  in
this class there is
no class.  (we’re
unbiased,) no?
incorrect
(answers?).
i mean to say

that in this

class there

are no
incorrect
answers.  (o?)
how ’bout that?
           among
the students is a
dance they like to
call class.  [is it
sometimes

rather 

called 

trance?]

[bingo!]
and how

might we

classify

this fine-ass

class?  oh, but,

yo, we don’t

classify [’cuz

that’s a no-no].

[it isn’t allowed,

at least aloud.]  

well, for one

thing, they’re pro

              noun;
déclassé. and
that’s perfectly a-ok.
[meanwhile, 

5witching to what
they’re actually
doing. . . .]  i’m
sending
out
my
resume 

[uh huh].

so, hey, hey!
said, hey, hey! 

bedhead is here 

to stay! [now

they’re think

ing don’t
blame the

dance, blame 

the dancer.]  i’d 

much prefer rolling

my eyes clean up in

to my skull [mau5

ears glowing like a
metronome] and
getting lost in 

some
other state
[they mean
the dancefloor].
thump, thwack!
thwump, thwock!
knock, knock.
who’s there?
what’s the
best state
in which to
work?  why,
the state of
unemployment,

of course.  [nope, 

says our anti-hero,
the seeker] [and
what a sucker!]
[didn’t they mean
to say it’s the state of

                      trance 

that’s number one?]

nope, says the fraud.
nope, says our sucker,
the seeker, getting back
to the beat.  that is indeed 

our fair protagonist, the

antagonist.  getting

back.  to.  the beat.

and so [wait for it],

hey, hey!
oh, hey, hey!
trancey-dance
is here to stay!
[beat that, buster!]
[naw.  i’m pretty
sure you got it.]

[and, by the way,
here’s your grade,

an a-plus.]

[keep on shakin’,

bacon!]
