Shoes: Poems About Footwear: A Highland Park Poetry Publication (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798523568879)

For the 2021 Summer Muses' Gallery, Highland Park Poetry asked poets to tell us everything they know about shoes. This includes all kinds of footwear - from sandals to boots, from slippers to sneakers. Shoes are a fundamental part of every step we take in life. Shoes protect our feet. Shoes can also chafe and produce blisters. Shoes give us confidence in our step. Shoes may trip us up. Shoes are cultural icons and a few are even featured in classic fairy tales. Shoes may represent wealth, status, caste, class, profession, age. What do the shoes we wear reveal about us and why are we so obsessed with them? Read on and find out.

The poems in this footwear focused anthology are organized into four sections: Working Shoes, Comfort and Fit, A Closet Full, and Fashion Statement. We hope you'll try several on for size and discover some verses that suit you.
