Not Totally Naked

I tied my own shoes.
I was conscious of it.
All day I was aware...
I was not totally naked.

And my feet,
Have only been seen...
By a selected few.
None of whom now...
See me tie my own shoes.

And when I purchase another pair...
Who will care,
What color sox I will choose to wear?
Or if they match.

I tied my own shoes.
I was conscious of it.
All day I was aware...
I was not totally naked.
