"what is it you love about these feet?"

initial thought: utility
beyond recovering dropped
items
the weaving of hairy fingers
through hairier toes
how flat, yet rhythmic in step

but it's their strength.
maybe i'm afraid
of how far they've tread
and where they may
eventually take him.
my toes curl sheepish
at what little ground
mine have covered.
