How to Wash Your Feet in the Shower

(for Dr. Reddy)

Truth is I know
how to wash
my feet in the shower
This one day
I had just found it annoying
The same day I was in
the examination room
with Dr. Reddy, my kidney doctor
Dr. Reddy is the type of person
this planet needs more of
She’s kind,
her eyes are alive with
beacons of caring
Plus, well she’s beautiful enough
to shine on a Hollywood movie screen
So, this one particular day
I was annoyed
at the uncomfortable way
one must wash feet in a shower
As me and Dr. Reddy
were talking
I asked her
how do you wash your feet in the shower?
She said with soap and a washcloth
As I walked out to my car
I wondered why the hell
I would ask Dr. Reddy
this crazy question,
How do you wash your feet in the shower?
Dr. Reddy, likes to read my poetry,
I respect her
Dr. Reddy, I wrote this one for you…
