Worn Out Shoes
The shoes need to have velcro
It's just a thing - I can tie laces fine - don't look at me like I can't tie a lace
They look good
Straps across the narrowness of the foot - like weapons - like leather jackets with buckles - there is a shit-kicking aesthetic in it
It snowed the other day and these old shoes have a hole that I didn't find until I stepped in it
Cold up my heel - a feeling that comes with it - a needle at the base of your nail bed
This is not how one walks in weather
You pull that thing tight over yourself - it is swaddling - you are prepared for the day then - anything that could possibly come will can then can because you have been sorted
Kick a rock and it will continue on its millennia journey
Add a pair of new shoes and your several decades worth of walking can go on
