BOOT: Anthropomorphized

There are some simple decisions to make: 
are the eyes on the outside 
or on the inside? 
How thick is the skin? 
What kind of strings are attached? 
How tight are the stitches, 
how sturdy the soul?

Such accidents will determine 
the way it walks through the world, 
the way it holds the memory of mud.

— Richard Smith
