A coworker found this on William Gibson blog
(http://www.williamgibsonbooks.com/archive/archive.asp)
"WASHINGTON POST STYLE has a contest in which readers
submit instructions for doing various things, their
choice, as written by famous authors. Jeff Brechlin
of Potomac Falls recently won for the following, for
wonderfully obvious reasons"
The Hokey Pokey (as written by W. Shakespeare)
O proud left foot, that ventures quick within
Then soon upon a backward journey lithe.
Anon, once more the gesture, then begin:
Command sinistral pedestal to writhe.
Commence thou then the fervid Hokey-Poke,
A mad gyration, hips in wanton swirl.
To spin! A wilde release from Heavens yoke.
Blessed dervish! Surely canst go, girl.
The Hoke, the poke -- banish now thy doubt
Verily, I say, 'tis what it's all about.
