it's been a long time
since i've broken in
a pair of boots or
nursed bitten heels
born of concrete
corridors that led
me to the river
i've spit in
on ocassion
and what's that say
about a good ol'
girl who heeds
no honor to
the great listener
who has tasted
her tears, offered waves
and welcomed dangling foot?
i want to bring leather
to the grassy shores
miles beyond
garbage stink and skylines.
i want to take my shoes off
and walk barefoot
where there is no glass
there is no metal.
there is only plush
and calloused feet
will be soft and wet.
