If the only entry point is animal is dog on the ground is harpoon.
If the only entry point is animal is dog on the ground is harpoon then this is dead narwhal then these are two grips.
Then these are two fists are maracas.
This is a wide-open sound, held as to knot.
And this is the regal gorilla performing its solo, a series of figure eight gestures with one grand finale.

our movement
This same dance
This grammar
we have
