There’s a pebble in my shoe,
Unnoticed,tucked away in the cushy side padding. Eventually making its way out and around my shoe.
It’s fine.
it’s a small pebble & I’ll take it out when I get to a resting point in my day
Lately, though there feels to be no resting point.
No sitting place to take my shoe off and assess the damage
My foot is sore and red I’m sure
I can feel the raw, fleshy pink parts under my toes were I’ve tried blindly to navigate the pebble away from.
My other foot is fine
I should just be grateful -
until I look down to notice that the lace is untied.
