I thought I saw you today… <br /> <br />It was a glimpse of a coat tail <br />and a brown leather shoe… <br />something about the way <br />the foot in the shoe leaned <br />in towards the left before stepping <br />down on the ground … <br /> <br />I was shocked at the pain I felt, <br />looking at that shoe for that <br />second… thinking that your foot <br />was in it, and attached to that <br />foot was you… <br /> <br />all of you, who was so much more <br />than brown leather shoes and coats… <br />indeed you were also about pants <br />and shirts… and scarves and hats … <br />and watches and aftershave too!<br /><br />YURI DURAAN<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/shallow-man/
