To establish a system of perpetual greeting. (“Halloo.”)
To ready the self, in the event of, a request for, a series
of high-fives.
To stretch and otherwise limber a percentage of sinew &
gristle.
To challenge the blood, climbing like a warm vine, toward
the fingers.
To assess the body’s capacity for persevering through
numbing dearth.
To hail a taxicab from the speedy seat of another
conveyance.
To audition for the position of question-asker emeritus.
To attract the attention of those whose foreheads lapse
easily into wrinkles.
To offset years of conducting this maneuver with the other
hand.
To practice the fond embrace of a taller chum on the
shoulder of a seat.
To perform a sedentary, one arm, no leg, no torso, nothing
further, jumping jack.
To raise awareness of people who forget the purposes of
their gestures.
To salute the landscape as it vanishes according to established
principles.
To receive the world & be received. To be human in
silhouette.

To stand up and be counted. To vote.
To vote again and again, apparently. Like the Chicago Democrats who rose from the grave, to vote for Kennedy. (Really & truly -- to sit down & be counted, eh?)
To answer the teacher's query. To become the teacher's pet. To supply every answer.

Stand up, vote...
