her boots have canyons in the seams loose stitching comes undone until it seems that the very fabric holding the rubber and canvas together will fracture like an unreliable narrator's stream of consciousness fragments of unreality they will fall by the wayside hand-me-downs to those less fortunate and she'll select a new set to wear thin some people swap shoes readily bedazzled with glitter or emblazoned with images of intergalactic wars or Winnie the Pooh caricatures characterizing our oscillating personalities and whimsical fancies i wear the same beat-to-shit pair each and every day i feel at home when my soles sink into the warm embrace of entangled laces regardless of where i roam gigs at local venues beach excursions after dark vegan cafés craft coffee bars cramped classrooms both teacher and student i may wear many hats but my sneakers remain interminable they say death is but the next great adventure i'm not certain i believe it but i'll wear these vans to my casket just in case
