Big Foot, big feet, .....had no idea which way to go with this theme so I let the "muse on the loose".
CHASING FOOTPRINTS Some feet are bigger than others none bigger than those left by your brothers - that you tried to fill. The foot that Dad would put “right up ‘ur ****” and the one Mom said you must put forward. The meter and feet we poetically treat in attempt to conform to rhythm and beat. One foot we must “take out of our mouth”, while trying to get “one foot in the door”. Footprints that litter the sands of our mind that cannot be followed by looking behind. The foot of the stairs the foot of the bed the footsteps of night the footsteps of dread. Huge footprints of carbon Al Gore and his ilk charging the cows for the grass to make milk. One foot on the gas One foot on the brake one looking to give one looking to take. So don’t judge the size or the depth of the root nor measure the soul by the size of the boot. John G.
