My Feet
Pick a body part and write about it for 15 mins
You are my base my foundation,
the conduit from the earth to me,
the way I move depends on you!
When they're covered they're silenced.
When they're bare I feel connected.
When they're warm I feel protected.
When they're cold I feel neglected.
It is you, that narrates my perception.
See I rarely think of you but always use you!
In this moment I realize I have forsaken you!
Your unwavering commitment to give me direct evaluations of my physical situations,
so pure...
I'm pretty sure I owe you a pedicure!
But you know I have to first release my toxic masculinity before I ever let you in the vicinity...
of a nail salon.
I never knew I would write spoken word about my feet but I did and I do repeat!
Thank you!
Feet!
