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
