It depends on where you are. In some places it is just a mindless prank, others it could symbolize that person's recent passing. You see these symbols in mostly urban areas and I would be most comfortable stating the the snearkers over telephone wires are an act of bordem more than anything else :)

It is a right of passage that symbolizes you have walked this way and moved on. The shoes are a part of you that you leave behind and the absence of the wearer of those shoes is the fact that one need not walk this way again.
Either that or a high wire performer got toasted and the shoes are all that remains

It symbolizes the youth in your area are bored and are displeased with their neighborhood. It can also represent a place to buy drugs.
Essentially, it is a sign you live in a bad or declining neighborhood as either idle youth are causing problems or there are drug dealings going on.
Call the utility company and ask them to remove the shoes.

It symbolizes that some people are jerks because most of the shoes on telaphone wires are shoes of someone that has been beaten up or mugged.

I see it also, i guess people don't have much to do so they play around and get it stuck on the wires.
