Poetry: Barefoot

Here is poem # 21 for the poetry pledge drive, which was inspired by an article that a friend posted earlier today.


Barefoot

They say expensive sneakers
Cause more injuries and don't

Help us to be better

Runners, say we're better
Off running with nothing on

Our feet like our ancestors; our toes
Give us more control.
