1460 Smooth
Red laces
Slicing deep into the black.
Warm concrete
Fit for an execution.
Frightened eyes
Compressed into its rough exterior.
Muffled cries;
Anticipation of its dark sole.
Tightly wound;
Strangling its owner’s leg.
Their jaw clenched
Tearing the layers from their tinged teeth.
The boot drops
Pulping his liberties
Stealing life.
Sobs of horror cast shadows
Dividing lines.
