Poem about shoes
?
I'm on the bus and I'm watching the passengers.
Why did I start with a question mark?
I wonder.
I wonder why I'm watching their sneakers.
Why am I looking at their shoes?
I can't believe what I'm seeing.
Shoes and sneakers talk.
They speak louder than words.
I see everything.
I see everything about them.
Who they are and what they do.
Everything.
Red heels.
I knew she was a businesswoman.
Green All stars.
I knew he was a stylish guy.
Old leather shoes.
Polished.
I knew he was an old gentleman.
I also saw something terrible.
It's cold and she's wearing slippers.
I didn't see anyone's face.
I don't know them.
And the shoes told me a lot.
Shoes are your mirror.
So shine your shoes.
Every day.

Shoes do tell someone's personality they say. Not sure if I agree though :D
