The Sneakers
The sneakers, on the wall arrayed With heightened soles, make me afraid They won’t be comfortable at all Or worse, they might just make me fall. When styles appear that seem improved And expectations might have moved, The target audience is young, Which I do not belong among. Nobody cares what I might buy And thus, that is the reason why When searching for a...

All Stars
Don’t you see the skip of my jolly heels, skipping about the globe while planting stars? Ask then from mother earth what joy she feels When my rubber sole and her corners spar. In offices, they don brogues and loafers, See me jolly hop with sparkled laces. My Chuck 70’s turn suits to gophers, Gentlemen grimace and grow grey faces. I know jealous...

Premium Member Sleep Sneakers
With soft hushed slip-steps They creep into my being My sleepy mind preps For all the things I’m seeing They are the sleep sneakers That invade in the night Restlessness seekers That dance without the light The tales of dreary dreams Show terror, fear or love But Sleep sneakers seem To form fit like a glove There is no themed story The meanings are unclear There’s doubt without glory Just...

Sneakers
Broke my running shoes, Ruined my day to be honest, Now I gotta go down to the shoe store and listen to some cretin tell me what shoes I should be wearing, As I arrived, a young man approached me and immediately starts dribbling on about the weight of each shoe, "Midsole foams on this Nike now make a...

Sneakers
When I started to jog Back in ‘75 (When so many of you Weren’t even alive) The choices of shoes You would wear on a run, For a woman, at least, Made the shopping no fun. Just Adidas and Brooks, And with limited styles, Were the options to wear As I chalked up the miles. Then came Reebok, but still, All the pickings were slim, So you’d see the...

Premium Member Overgrown Sneakers
At early twelve, motherly words echoed Of the self, becoming a lady one January eve. No, it can’t happen, as a pale navel ached when Another unintended milestone had begun— Those rubber sneakers fondly overused died On a pink carpet, that I could not understand How unusually larger my almond eyes Woke a year after: Tucking...

My Favorite Pair of Sneakers
When the wind blows When the wind blows,the lighting strikes,when heavy rain comes,I know you will be there. There I was in my birthday suit during a crowd of people robbed of all my belongings,but you were there with me, all I had was you on my feet. In you they saw no value,they saw no quality only...

Premium Member Abandoned Sneakers
ABANDONED SNEAKERS IN THE STREETS As we walked watchfully along the way, a pair of sneakers lay silently in the streets; abandoned by flight or neglect. Their soles have lost their occupant: gone to who knows where. We cannot know the life they once shared; for there are no footprints in the asphalt to trace the path of their beginning...

Sneakers Exit
The sky is light The moon is brighter The paths are clearer The fastest legs ply Abonyi village stands in silence To wails of frogs and flies Only the stubborn child cries To the ‘chu-ko chu-ko’ sounds of beds The day has been bade well The gongs of my heart struck Awakened! The earliest crow heard The windows of the eyes, Still fixed The doors of the ears, Widely left...

Magic Sneakers
When I was very young a little boy of five, I had a pair of sneakers that made me feel alive. They were black with white soles, discolored and had several holes. They took me wherever I wanted to go, in outer space, a pirate ship or a mountain covered in snow. I did not have much in those day but...
