Socks? Strict, soft tubes to fit my feet in? No, no, **** that;
I’d rather have my toes splayed out and arches back.
****** heeled shoes, relics from rich ******; I’d like my feet flat.
I love the barefoot shoe life, I’m all about that.
Wide-toed shoes that let you maximize your splay,
no orthotic arches so you can stand up on your feet all day,
and though a few folks glared at my “clown shoes” today,
I don’t mind it… because that’s just the barefoot way.

This piece is about the heelless footwear with a wide toe box and no arch support that many who wear them have dubbed “barefoot shoes”. I was inspired to write this partly because I wore a pair of barefoot shoes that I own, my Altra sneakers, out in public during the evening just before I wrote this, and while I was out, I remembered how some people find that type of footwear strange-looking.
