Viewing Me With Utter Contempt
A superb young Asian woman, quite rightly, views me with utter contempt as she uses me to have her sneakers lickshined out on the street.
![]() |
Looking down on me, both literally and figuratively, as she approaches my humble, municipal head |
![]() |
How she despises me - a thing that must lick people's dirty shoes and boots out on the street! |
![]() |
Nevertheless, she elects to use me in just such a demeaning manner |
![]() |
Soon I have been given a humbling taste of both her sneakers! |
![]() |
Meanwhile she contemptuously ignores me by focussing on her text messages on her phone |
![]() |
This gives me the lowly opportunity to study her socks... |
![]() |
...since her socks, like her sneakers, are right in my face! |
![]() |
I study the stitching in the socks... |
![]() |
...wishing I could be one of those fortunate sock stitches... |
![]() |
...since each and every one has direct contact with her foot, and therefore her sweat! |
![]() |
But I don't get to taste sweat - only sneaker leather |
![]() |
Again she contemptuously switches her sneakered (and socked) feet in front of me... |
![]() |
...before finally turning to leave |
![]() |
She has not spoken a word to me - I am too far beneath her to merit conversation |
![]() |
She doesn't think of me as a person - just a thing that licks feet |
![]() |
I humbly watch as her freshly-licked sneakers make their silent departure |
![]() |
I observe her departing sneakers and socks admiringly... |
![]() |
...since I hold their pretty wearer in every bit as much esteem as she holds me in contempt! |
