Review: This is a poem about sneakers. It’s also a poem about friendship. It’s also a poem about race. One way friends and lovers bond is through a common style and sharing clothes that mean something. The poem starts out with a hot tip about the latest kicks and how the “Avengers are too flashy” and the speaker buys a different style with the “dough [he] was supposed to use to pay / the light bill.” The friendship gets strained when the speaker shows up to the basketball court with a girl “in [his] shorts & white skin” and feels like he’s betraying his friend.
