Footnote: Came To Rest

You took off your shoes

for the long walk through your day,

exposing your socks

until they came to rest on

his gratefully upturned face.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

Cavafy has a poem entitled "Comes To Rest," which is also about an erotic experience; and I selected my title in homage to his.
