One Pair of Shoes

Based on a true story

A torture 
device 
from the pit
of hell,
a sometimes 
necessary 
evil,
one pair 
of shoes 
nicknamed 
Annoying!

I would be 
an habitually 
barefoot
person
if not for 
cold rain
and winter,
both are 
a bane
to my 
happy 
existence!

Was due to his temper being short.

Because of his outrageous snits.

Sex Workers

Late at night,
when the world is quiet,
they can plan to work,
to get what to eat.

What's funny,
they sweat the whole day,
but all what they get,
they spend them at once,
and then they starve.

Funny as they are,
my mum at home,
she nicknamed them,
a funny sweet name,
" I  eat all i get'.

Iris

Listen to poem:
*Image of Iris The Greek Goddess by Redbubble.

Iris

Iris nicknamed Eye-ris,
Iridescent paired wings,
Indulgent to the gods,
Iliad's messenger,
In waiting for Hera,
Ignored in ancient myths,
Idyllic comes and goes.
