Summerville, Georgia
Paradise Gardens is a block-long collection of religious folk art by the late Christian artist Howard Finster and others. Next to one pathway, surrounded by what most would deem junk, is a large white shoe. Across the toes it reads, "How beautiful are the feet of those who spread the gospel of peace."

Yes, it is true, some people never wear shoes.

Name: Under The Spell Of Shoe
Author: Poetry written by Liam Rector
I've made a point, over the years, perhaps even a moral point,
Of never having sex with any of the wives of my best men friends.
The closest I came
Was once when I was living alone, house-sitting a Jamesian
House in Chevy Chase, and one of my best friends and his wife
Were spending the weekend
And they went up to bed.
The woman left her pair of shoes on
The floor, on the rug, and I was quite stoned, and I wandered over
And picked up
One of the shoes, and I held the shoe, and, staring deeply into what
I took to be the essence of my friend's wife as she embodied the shoe
And the shoe embodied her,
I imagined her and me fucking each other senseless. It was
Great, and it did no real nor lasting damage to the marriage,
As far as I could tell.

39
shoes....39 shoes
what
does that tell you?
What's
a gal to do
when
she's only got 39 shoes?
Wouldn't
you know it
It's
the very pair
I
wanted to wear.
I've
hunted and grunted.
searched
low, then high
I'm
plumb mystified
"Dang
it!
Where's
my other shoe?!" I cried.
Only
so many places
a
shoe could hide.
Retraced
my footsteps
every
inch; near and wide.
This
has made me insane.
I've
gone quite mad;
things
are looking hazy.
I
tell ya, I think I'm going crazy.
I've
looked under chairs
and
couches
up
and down the stairs
I
need my 40th shoe!
Now
what am I going to do?
They
were the perfect shade of blue.
But
wait! I've got an American Express.
No
need for this girl to get depressed.

But until you have brushed a woman's cheek with your trembling lips and brushed your shoes with your wife's new guest towel, you know nothing about love -- or your wife.

I love sex; it's free and doesn't require special shoes.
