the naked poet

Drawing her lines across her wrists with a razor blade

I said :

" wouldn't it be easier to just carry a sign
Saying

I' M STUPID ? "

she said :

YEAH
BUT I LOVE SHOVING MY ****  YOUR FACE

::

I laughed

For THAT was her best poem yet !!

)(

In ancient hebrew

The word for NAKED

meant a

TOTAL OPENNESS UNTO GOD

::

Now

We think of fornication but we call it

LOVE !

( sort of like

GOD ON THE SLY ! )

Pretending that ***

Is the greatest form of openness to someone

We know that this is not true

Because the truest opening never closes !!!

)(

But

It's kinda fun thinking of all the poets here naked

Otherwise I'd just be stuck reading the poems !

( a fate worse than death ! )

A fatal dose of romantic ******* !!
