the restoration (us) – little round shoes كلمات اغاني
narrator: thomas vale
(regarding mrs. willodean poole)
you’ve sat in the next pew from me
since we were seventeen, and how you’ve grown
into a woman that i barely know
there you are across the aisle—
peekin’ out from behind john, chapter 5;
and i swear you’re makin’ eyes
in that same old satin dress
that covers every bit of flesh from neck to shoe:
those little round-toed shoes
little round shoes
a glimpse of powder-perfumed wrists
slippin’ out of knit-lace sleeves
as you pull a hymnal from your seat
gloved hands grip page 38—
t–th, gums, tongue escape their proud flesh-cage
of lips that only sing and pray
collar tight ‘round slender neck—
heaving, flexing, screaming, “how great thou art”!
we’re skin and blood and sins apart
little round shoes
you married the man by your side
when we were twenty-five;
and my skin screams at all the things you’ve let him see
sweating through your bridal lace—
o, the victory, the wait!—
his hard square hands tremble as you guide them down:
over b-ttons, hooks and clasps
garters, stockings, and—at last—those little strings
to shoes that promise everything
little round shoes:
there’s nothing that i wouldn’t do
to get off your little round shoes
o, the women that i’ve ruined with my thin
worker’s hands
and the women who i’ve paid to ruin me
this is nothing new
there’s nothing that i wouldn’t do
to get off all their little round shoes
