    Thanks for the reply Your right the "if " flows better and stays more rhetorical The "click" fit ryhme wise but i would agree snap implies breakage or damage more , perhaps Ill rework that line Standing dancing solo was the only words I had to describe a homeless fellow I had observed that got...
