Foregin language seem to be one thing we share, Badger29.
But on to your poem. I liked the splendid way you applied in the rhymes, as well as the portrayal of the haters. And - oh joy! - I found somebody eho spelt words in a way that didn't stop me while I read. Whew, what a relief.

The Spanish love their dancing and they are so good at it too and I love your thought, dance your way out of trouble and turn your back on 'haters', love Dolly x

A very well-written poem. When our mood is sad or angry. Turn on the music and make a few dance moves, before you know you forgot everything that upsetvyou in the first place.

A fine tragicomedy, with the villain getting the comeuppance he deserves. I thought it was only Christians that got thrown to the lions, though, sadly, I have found as many haters among them as in any other group of people. Splendid use of slant rhymes in the earlier verses. Your transatlantic brethren spell feces with an unnecessary extra letter, faeces. Quaint, isn't it? I rather liked the way you described those marvel(l)ous mares' tail clouds, which my masters at school insisted were cirrhus, though even the Latin derivation doesn't have the redundant 'h'. American spelling is so much simpler and more logical. I'm not sure why drama, hater and outcast are in quotation marks, though I expect you have your reasons.

I really appreciate your helpful comments about the punctuation, as I can get carries away in my attempts to emphasize emphatically. You are well versed in etymology and British English~

Hello Badger. There is just so soul satisfying about dance. It doesn't matter what starts it either. Your soul just jumps int the dance and the spirit soars. Loved it. xoxo Kiwi

Funny you should mention Spanish and dancing going together. I lived in Spain as a child for three years and the Spanish are indeed amazing dancers. It's an entertaining poem. I didn't find any nits or errors and have no suggestions for corrections.
Good advice!

This speaks about dancing, how dancing can help living in love and rhythm, melodic and musical gay, as smile can help living happy and peaceful; I liked.

This work has reached the exceptional level

"So, when a "hater" gives you lip,
do what you know is right:
Smile and move your hips,
and just dance off into the night!"

This kind of says it all. I myself do not like haters, I find that it is getting harder to forgive them like I know I should. I have no place in my heart for people who do not like other because they are different or from another race. I guess it will be up to us poets to chance others minds,

"as you resist their friction
by the smile on your face
The "drama "their addiction,
Will put them in their place!"

Hmmm, I know exactly who I have in mind! I love this verse, it's an alternative to arguing/fighting. Your poem had me puzzled by its description for dealing with a hater. Then I realized your " think outside the box" creative approach was actually brilliant.
Virtual hug.
