scuffed

 scuffed 


always brown shoes

tiny ribbons of leather lifted

the underside of shine showing


wait ‘til i get home

nags in one ear’s mind


cuffed around the ear’ole

swings the rhyme

no reason to rush


get some dirt stuff to hide the scuff

chuffed with that ruse


who could refuse


 mum?
