Going Naked

(I find naked people facinating - but the ones that just take their clothes off are usually as boring as dishwater! )

(There that should up the page count significantly. :-)) )

I saw another body today
Tightly clothed in its nakedness.
Tanning away its individuality,
Sizzling in the sand...
The beach was more interesting.

I prefer a greater nakedness,
Revealing all in the clothes they wear.
The intimacy of the outer apparel
That displays the inner soul.
People unashamed of who they are,
Wearing their individuality on their sleeves.

yes, I know what you mean too. What is the real them. I prefer wondering whats underneath myself. But then, from one who looks so much better with her clothes on.....what do I know.
