The World From the View of a Show Lindsay Gaines, '25 A muddy puddle, A gravelly street, Gum on the sidewalk, Hundreds of feet. Grass on a lawn, Weeds at the back, Walk on the driveway, Hop over a crack. Wet sand at the beach, While the sea’s at low tide, A wave splashes up, Quick jump to the side. Old white tiles And a carpet, dark blue, Stained with small paint drops And markers, and glue. Dark colored lining, On the floor of a car, I drive in the darkness, I don’t know how far. Oil stains, tire stains, On the garage floor, My steps echo quietly, As I walk towards the door. I enter my home, Kicked off to the side, Socked feet scamper off, As I sit here, still tied. The life of a shoe Is an interesting one, Now I’ll rest for the night, My long day is done.
