The shoe tree

I remember the shoe tree in Nevada.
My second throw sailed high
And clunked down,
My favorite sneakers,
A limb
Then another.
Then, they. crawled,
Like, one, of those, Slinky toys,
Down, the, stringy, cluster,
Of, shoe fruit, until,
One tangled,
the other shoe dangled
And spun lazily, free,
the lowest berry in the tree.
