playful performance

On all fours, all aligned
He stands here and it’s all fine
A right leg rises, an effect on an arm
Whenever it moves there is an alarm
Another limb must move, another end moves up
Fast or slow, bottom or top
Fingers and toes, they all seem to know
Which way to go and when
When he sits down, I wonder why I am bipedal
