Foolish Things
he never remembered to take
his shoes off, but the rug gave him
away.
a trail of pink bubblegum, or perhaps
a bit of soot leftover from
the holiday.
he’d lounge against the wall,
one foot black-marking
his stance.
later, moving to the couch,
his feet remained the focus,
no one eyeing the kitchen
for food.
but his conversation was brilliant,
full of fire, sibilant
consonants and a bit of
bravado.
who knew his future then
would take his life,
deep in the sand of Iraq,
his boots lost
forever.
