My Toe Undies

The silence as I dance around the stage.
The feel of the rough material between my toes.
And the tightness of the band as it in cases my foot.
But the comfortable feel as I dance.
Colourless when on, as it blends with the tone of my foot.
But light tan as I hold it in my hand.
They are shaped like a pair of granny underwear.
But with two holes for my dancing toes.
The velvet bottom used to help turn and spin.
It is the size of a coin pouch, with no coins.
They protect my foot from the hardness of the stage.
It frees the foot.
I am not restricted by shoes,
Yet, I can turn as if I am wearing shoes.
I have the power, control, and freedom of a bird.
My toe undies, used for contemporary.
Wearing my toe undies brings my dancing to life.
When I wear my toe undies I can dance what I feel and express myself freely,
As I connect with the feel of the song.
