These Shoes Are Made for Walking
By: Soham Roy
(inspired from a Writer’s Notebook entry)
My shoes are muddy, wet, and dirty
They are a size six
They do not last long
They are the only pair I wear
They are sneakers
They are wide
These shoes have taken me to places
Into the Taj Mahal
On the Great Wall of China
Inside the pyramids of Egypt
These shoes have taken me to victories
These shoes have sat on a shelf
These shoes are mine

I would love to see photos of your travels to the Taj Mahal, the Great Wall, and the pyramids. Those shoes were indeed made for walking!
I have not actually been to the. Great Wall of China or the Great Pyramids of Giza, but I have been to the Taj Mahal.The architecture was amazing!
I like how you write about all the places that those shoes have taken you.
Yes, those shoes have taken me quite a few places, but I have not seen the pyramids of Egypt or the Great Wall of China in real life.
There is nothing known as mine. Not even my body.
I am eternal. All pervasive and all permissive.
I am HE; Sohm.
