The Importance of That Extra Hole
There's a confusing part to every shoe
That extra hole the lace goes through
I find that hole to be extra pleasant
When I'm running in the present
That hole is important to me
As I run free
Past all the places I want to see
Throughout the hills of rural Germany
Instead of taking the rail
I stick to the trail
With the dirt below my feet
Nature couldn't feel more sweet
The hole keeps my feet in place
Giving me a speedy pace
As I feel the wind across my face
Grateful for its tight embrace
This hole means the most to me
Because it keeps me blister free
This poem is about:
Me
My country
