Transparent Lace

Laces tied
over and over again.
Holding together to folds of my shoe.
The invisible workers.

I set them up,
everyday, every morning.
My dependency grows
With each task.

They go unnoticed,
but I recognize their knots.
They are my supporters.
They are in control

Of where my feet lead me.

The laces are a metaphor. The ending is left open for interpretation.
