City tree out of place
Mired in cross communication wires
Bumping up sidewalk cracks
Got tangled up in shoe
So the toe makes a break for a hole in the sock
Small root projection tearing through the cloth
Angling for some air
Fresh away from the other 4
Still that foot insists on coming along
Chipped purple nail polish out on the town
Mud pie fare of water and dirt
No more cause
Little toe is making like a leaf
Drinking up the light

Delightful, makes me happy in 4 or 5 ways. You make me feel the freedom colors. Coinky-dinkly, I'm about to post a TJ with a big toe reference related to liberation. What timing we have here at the Culture & Science Café.
