Shoeless

In certain homes you can’t wear shoes;

The option isn’t yours to choose.

It doesn’t line up with my views,

But I can understand it.


Though I was just surprised to read

That certain offices took heed

And told employees that they need -

In fact, they did demand it -


To shed their footwear at the door,

No matter what type that they wore.

This order they could not ignore;

The high-ups did command it.


To me, that is a step too far,

For shoes show who you really are

And wearing slippers might just mar

Your rep and how you brand it.


At home, you maybe act the slob,

But when you dress up for your job,

No boss should be allowed to rob

Your look, the way you planned it.
