Poetry & Art of the Intelligently Erotic

Jess Scott - The One About the Shoes
Okay. She. Likes. Shoes.
She tries them on before trying anything else on.
That’s how she pieces her whole outfit together.
She takes three pairs out--
a ballerina flat with an animal print fabric
a sleek knee-high smokin’ black leather classic boot
a wine-colored mid-heel pump
She steps into the boots
She puts her weight on her left leg
throws her right leg out
straight, posing,
jutting her right hip out
Stiletto heel at a sharp angle to the floor
a hot wave from my soul pours out to her
