wear some socks!

With her childlike laughter trailing off
she tells me that all the cool kids
aren't wearing socks with their Vans.
I chuckle, you can't be serious!
Who doesn't wear socks with their Vans?
I could see some little thirteen-year old
girl strolling down the street,
sockless, wearing her pink flamingo Vans,
thinking she's the s**t.
I imagine her coming home taking her shoes off,
her feet sweaty and covered in
shoe lint.
Anita laughs at my comments
and points down.
She's rocking her sockless feet in her
pink flamingo Vans.
