They used to be called thongs

until the bathing suit industry

took over the term

and made it something sexy

so now they are called Flip Flops

basic footwear

just a piece of rubber

with two straps on top

such simple shoes

best on the beach

because you can wash the sand off

and they float

but you can wear them anywhere

to the gas station

to the store

to restaurants

no shoes no service

but flip flops qualify

simple footwear

cool and comfortable

good for the sole

what would Jesus wear?
