unblathed
raze i've noticed a lot of people don't seem to like their feet. they think they're ugly or something. maybe it has to do with toenails sometimes breaking and jutting out at odd angles when they grow back. or maybe it speaks to what the feet support and their owner's distaste for the structure as a whole.

i don't mind my feet so much. they look like hands that have been distorted by a funhouse mirror. they help me stand.

if this were a movie, there'd be a jump cut right about now to a scene that would show me standing in a boxing ring, wearing oven mitts in lieu of the traditional gloves. i'd step in to throw a punch, but it would stop short as my opponent fell to his knees laughing. and then i'd join him.
