saving shoes, saving hems
so carefully step
a woman in iron pattens
breaks bondage with itself.
breaks a gentleman's ankle.
makes off with his wallet and thigh high ridding boots.
her own hero, forever,
unless, o'course, she's hanged.
'til then,
her hem is filthy,
but her toes are warm,
and her feet are finally free.
