Underneath
I'm staying in town right now, so this sort of came to me a while ago.

This item has no ratings.
On the surface I wear nice clothes
My hair is tidy
My shoes are clean
My fingernails are scrubbed.

But underneath
My feet are rough and calloused from
Running without shoes,
My mind is on doing the chores and
How my animals are faring
Which brings me to believe that
It is what is underneath that counts.
