“Is the best version of me alone in a store waiting to be bought?”
This is what I like best about your writing. I’m reading along, and you have me thinking you’re just goofing off with words, and then a line—tucked in among the word play, the banter, and the holding of words curiously to the light—strikes into a deeper level. That’s cool.
…what fun would fun be if it contained only itself?…i appreciate you reading and enjoying this…sometimes i think i am just trying to unpack and put away an obsession…sharing the joys i discover is another goal…and seeing better what i think i see…also any excuse for a good laugh…thanks bud!!…
A devastating critique of corporate greed in the shoe industry and a timely call for responsible shoe stewardship in our culture of runaway shoe consumption.
Just kidding, I love your style man! And you know what, I did listen to the end of the recording. Fun stuff. After all the setup the little video gave me a legit laugh. 🙏
…dude amazing…i’ll have to start leaving more easter eggs lol…i knew this article would finally give me a chance to fight nike (in a cage, covered in olive oil and pretzel salt)…stoked on what you are up to as well brother!!…thank you for listening!!…
Listened to it all and am in awe. Following you through it with diamonds on the soles of my shoes. Haven’t heard that one in a long time. What did you pull out of your shoe?
All of my shoes get worn down at the places where my pinky toes stick out, eventually, but I can't find it in me to throw them away. I loved this! Every time I read something new from you I'm impressed by how far you can stretch a simple, silly idea.
…isn’t it crazy how hard it is to let a shoe go?…i got a hamper full of decade’s dead sneakers that somewhere in my brain i’m like “they still have a purpose”…appreciate you!…
Another cansafis classic! As always hard to pick a favorite bit but shoed (hehe) I really have to, it'd be
"I am hard to wash and easy to wear. I am silent without you, hiding small thoughts like little rocks in the forgettable unfindable corners within me."
Also, I was a fool for not listening to the voice overs before
...you rule (shoel?)...appreciate you putting this one on (oh man how many times am I going to put my foot in my mouth here)...i sat on this one for a while so happy to see it finally out there strutting all over the net...appreciate you!...
Wait, so how many feet do you actually have? I notice you didn't actually say. What are you hiding? And have you ever had illegally parked shoes taken away by a toe truck?

Bear feet...with souls...?
You're off your meds again, aren't you?
Your mom warned you about this when you decided to go to a state school.
…she should have let me become a golden gopher!…
This was really great. A fun read. 😊
…i try sometimes and it is always trying…
Shoo old shoe, you have no sole left, I need a oooh new shoe with a brand new soul.
Loved reading this. As always makes me laugh and gets me moody at the same time.
…you rule man…hard to hide how much of a heel i feel…

Toy heart!!
