Superbly Haughty
A superbly haughty customer-mistress uses me in the street. She can’t even bring herself to look at me, so insignificant am I in her haughty eyes! Nor does she utter a single word towards me throughout our encounter of unequals. She lets her contempt for me do all the talking for her.

If truth be told, I envy her socks! |

For they get to hug her heels and ankles |

Whereas I must keep my distance |

I'm sure she must have more regard for her socks... |

...than she does for me |

And rightly so! |
