Glass Slippers (46 of 365)

Day 46 of the 365 day poem challenge.

Word of the day elegiac meaning: "Of, relating to, or involving elegy or mourning or expressing sorrow for that which is irrecoverably past: an elegiac lament for youthful ideals. 2. Of or composed in elegiac couplets."

Glass slippers 

Walking heaven forbid 
That you slip
Treading cautious frozen
With an elegiac tread

Walking moving traversing 
Exploring tentative 
Suppose you slip
Suppose you suppose
For too long then it is inevitable

Walking listless trudging 
Like a leper through glass shards
That impale and bite invisibly 
That dare you to slip
Glass slippers were never very practical

Walking pointed 
Purposive strides 
Slipping
fission reactor 
Spineless tuneless.
