It's Not Always Cool to be a Reject

Middle-aged men wear you 

like a monk wears a robe:

an out-of-time Athenian

who's historically old.


Oh,

eons-old footwear,

you are hideous.

And to top it off,

you don’t hide the grotesque

display of bipedalism 

that’s caused by the human foot.


Oh,

sandal,

you are the reject shoe.

This doesn’t help you.

It further buries you.
