"Pizazz"
There is a certain strut in a walk
a given glide in one's personal stride,
reflecting a modicum of respect
in one's self, and also their pride;
when a dog jerks at the end of his leash
he wags his tail as the butt of some joke
where a feline in this regard,
"meant to do that, you silly bloke !"
Fish do not posess "Pizazz"
in their nature, it's really quite not,
they display a smidgeon of it though
once or twice in their lives, if their caught.
Monkeys and primates don't have it
it appears mostly when one has style,
they're cute because they seem animated
but it's nervous energy, all of the while.
Humans acquire it in different amounts
nothing to do with one's family, though
I've seen some "elegants" have too much of it
there's, "Woah !"...and then there's, "Way Woah !"
So there ends up a balance that's needed
like the difference between Polka, and Jazz...
using the tool known as, discernment
can help one guage if one has too much, "Pizazz !"
