Shoe Fetish


The servant girl

encounters a party shoe

under the bed.

It lies on its side.

She tips it up with her bare toe.

And then...

She turns it around

Orienting the fancy strap to her bare heel.

She raises her foot.

Her toe points tentatively,

but stops in mid-air.

Her hand returns automatically to the sheets

to relieve them of their passion.

Somewhere in the house,

a door slams in the wind.
