This poem is called 11 ways of looking at a shoe. It's
written as if Wallace Stevens wrote it. And each numbered stanza is
a different style of writing. Their based off the poem by Wallace called 11 ways of
looking at a black bird. This a
great descriptive writing
I. 1 Among the 3 billion in the US
Each and every person has
A pair of shoes
II. 2 Wear
them anywhere, shoes
Bring me forth the path ahead
III. 3 The
Shoes marched in unison
Like a small stampede
IV. 4 An
aglet and an aglet are one
Together they form a bow
V. 5 I
do not know which I prefer
The beauty of a deadstock pair
Or the exquisiteness of it on my feet
VI. 6 The
non-descriptive man took off the pair
He had the smile of a lizard
And the walk of snail
He set them to fire As if he was a wizard
VII. 7 Jordan
has 6 rings
Moses wrote the 10 commandments
Jordan wore the best shoes
Moses split the red sea
VIII. 8 As
you listen to your song
Your feet tap along
You dance to the beat
Like the shoes on your feet
IX. 9 A
rectangle top
A half circle toe
And the stars on the bottom
Keeps the shoe shine and glow
X. 10 The
shoes stomped louder than Zeus’s thunder
It makes you ponder
Who is really is control
XI. 11 That fragile glass slipper glistening In the clocks light
As it strikes midnight Cinderella is frantic
A shoe determines the fate of the prince and princess
As they both await for one another
