Poetry Sunday

There are lots of things that fall under the category of "fetish," and one of the most frequently-mentioned is the foot fetish. Please note that I know this only through my extensive reading and study*. It's possible, though, to appreciate feet in a decently loving way, as this beautiful poem suggests ...

Your Feet

by Pablo Neruda

When I cannot look at your face

I look at your feet.

Your feet of arched bone,

your hard little feet.

I know that they support you,

and that your gentle weight

rises upon them.

Your waist and your breasts,

the doubled purple 

of your nipples,

the sockets of your eyes

that have just flown away,

your wide fruit mouth

your red tresses,

my little tower.

But I love your feet

only because they walked

upon the earth and upon

the wind and upon the waters,

until they found me.

Have a good day and enjoy the rest of your weekend. It's a good day to take a walk with your lover and get those feet some exercise.

More thoughts coming.

Bilbo

* I have other fetishes, which we will not discuss here.
