My feet what can I say, well they're not the bravest little things, not small but average I think. well I put them out the sheets and what did they do scurry back in was it cold was it warm, who knows? All I know is that it was pitch black darker inside than outside because stars twinkle down little light bulbs of above slightly lighting things gently down below. My feet what can I say, that flat foot that wanders wherever it goes I don't know, my body just follows those ten little digits and the  flat palm of my feet. I am but a traveller on this journey they don't mind when it's light, this is their favourite time. But  a "BOO, and I'm standing there while my feet are running away In to the horizon and then I follow in the distance. My feet what can I say, they're not the bravest of appendages, When they get spooked they run a mile in under a minute. But the only problem is what are they connected to when they leave. "I'm like I be back in a whileeeeeee!!!, I'm out of breath but there on the spot jogging up and down and for what a sneeze a shout and then there out. I put my hands on my knees to keep them eased, to the spot they must stay I look down and i know that they want to walk, run off again. I can't blame it, just on the palms of my feet those dam digits they have their own thoughts. Like a centipede they linger in the thought of moving where I want to stand in a static form. But we think we are in control but look below it's those appendages.

My Scaredy Feet
