Heels
I watch as
my sister,
the big girls, get
ready for the
party, primping,
looking like zombies
as they apply
their eyeliner
if you are
lucky
they will let
you
try those
high heels on
and as you slip
your blessed feet
into those
coveted shoes
all that matters
is the one
pleading wish
desperate
that you will
grow that extra
shoe size so that
maybe you can
go to parties
too.
