Shoes Or More Shoes
Special thanks to DT for inspiration
Your shoe sharing’s worth utter admiration
Only one pair of shoes, one purse and one dress -
Women's tough choices - source of daily distress.
I'm faithfully in love with all my shoes
With clear understanding, not confused.
When one is on the go, the others wait
For their turn for a special dress code date.
I don't denounce their origin, per se,
In every one I will step all the way.
After all an Asian make - still a shoe,
If bearing the red brand of Jimmy Choo.
I treat them all with equal tender care,
Designed they are but not designed to share.
I'd lend my toothbrush for a single use
Before you lay you feet into my shoes.
Not implying foul odour, unrefined,
But if that is the case, better me mine.
Too bad, a pair of soles, chic and sublime,
Can only be flaunted, one at a time.

Two Pairs Of Shoes
Fashion hound, that I am
I have shoes for every occasion
One black pair of Adidas
Probably made by some East Asian
I only have one pair of feet
Why would I need two pairs of shoes?
I can only wear one pair at a time
Besides, I'm easily confused
Should you ever find me out with two pair
And you happen to be in a bind
I am the kind of fella that shares
Just remember, the black Adidas are mine.
