My Serpentine

In my mid-twenties, I could imitate the shoulder-snaking, foot-sliding dance of Axel Rose.
But somehow after Lulu was born, the ability disappeared, as if it had slipped from my body during childbirth.
Maybe it was taken from me only to be resurrected within the hips of my children, where it shall lie dormant until that shining day they hear "Welcome to the Jungle,'' and they discover the awsome power of the Axel dance within them.
And I'll know why I had to give it up.

Fun-ny. I could do the Axel dance too. In fact, when I was drunk I often thought I WAS Axel.

I hope only this for your children.
