As the salesman reaches down to slip on a shoe he looks at the fat foot, then wonders what to do the shoe looks perfect it appears that it does not pinch yet he wants to make sure it will not grow another inch... When it comes to exact size the man will likely treasure a measure To a potential fat foot this measure is no pleasure cause if the salesman has to fill his quota for the day he's got to prevent the customer from walking away... And he might blame the bad fit on the plumpness of the foot insist the foot fit the shoe so he might be called a crook there is method in his keeness and he's oblivious to client needs cause he's there to fit the shoe on, unaware the client's no longer pleased We reach down daily to slip on a shoe sometimes wondering what we're about to do are we about to treat ourselves with total disregard like shoe clerks who insist on one fit and try so hard.

Raven As long as a few people are sincerely interested in what I write that's great...why appeal to everyone, life would be too predictable then, wouldn't it? |

The shoes become the man? . . . or, maybe . . . |
