"It's about words, and words are all I have…"

NERVOUS SHOEWATHCHER

NERVOUS   SHOE WATCHER

She eyes   my shoes  with anxious tension

generally reserved for birds of prey    She is

a  so hip it hurts psychotherapist   living the

dream   in West Queen West    I cannot help

but feel the prick of envy  mixed with evil eye

Her hello belies   the palpable fear    that I

am a hoarder  of  shoes & frocks    For this

she will forever be left   in her  deshabille

&  sand coloured crocs
