Running In High Heels

Elevated beyond belief To the sky and through the clouds To think above the mists Of normal everyday confusion. What to eat What to wear How do I look Who really cares. What to do next Where do I go What do I create How do I know Which pair of heels Which ones should I wear The ones that are serious Or the one's that say 'I dare'. Should I put on my brand new ones The ones that no one's ever seen Or should I wear my old ones Old friends that love my feet. I am running in High Heels That is what I do I try to keep my balance I try and keep my groove. I try to stay grounded Keep my feet upon the ground Try to avoid the many puddles of life Really try to avoid the pond. Step by Step my High Heels take me Ever further still They are how I am going to get there They'll take me where I am going to be. It isn't always easy To run in these high heels. But I wouldn't have it any other way I keep running by sheer force of will. (January 9, 2011 Wausau, Wisconsin) (c) Copyright 2011 by Christine A Kysely, All Rights Reserved,
