Sneakers
Shawnice Pate 1991 (Brooklyn)
I've been bound to wear sneakers and flat boots.
I am not too tomboyish anymore.
The kind of tomboy who wear plain clothes and shoes.
The nice kind of clothes is for me.
I like the good sneakers I want and buy.
To be admired for my personality and style.
Wearing them on my feet should be more than just comfortable.
