Dancing "The Ghouta"

Al Tayyib was the first to examine the full-diameter core sample
He noted that the drying time had been minimal
Based on the principle that for something to require drying
Wetness would need to be an initial factor
His report would not be welcomed by his superiors
Who were either frightened or wise enough
To only deliver good news to the governate

But as Al Tayyib radioed his findings
A familiar whistling sound
And a not-so-distant staccato bass line of medium ordnance
Filled the lab with new sounds
He was suddenly compelled to dance
There were several successive strikes
Not direct hits to the science building
But close enough to shatter the windows
And cause the walls and floors to buck and buckle
To remain standing, he pivoted his hips
And rotated his upper body
Both achieving balance
And looking good while doing it

Al Tayyib had found his groove and needed to share his new moves
He took his dance out of the building and out to the street
Where he was now being being out-danced by children and old women
His hip-pivot was nothing compared to their full-body mega-twitch
One of the DJs was going nuts with the fog machine
And the whole 'hood was joining the party!
