another persons shoes

it's impossible to put
yourself into another
persons shoes.
to start with
they probably won't fit.
too snug, too tight,
the wrong color, the laces
round, not flat
like you prefer. 
we can't go there. 
we can't sit and tug
with all our might
to get them on.
there is little understanding
as to why or how
people behave
the way they do,
or why they choose 
such horrible shoes
to wear.
