Nude Attitre

Genre: Poesy Title: Nude Attire Author: John King Ayanfe © Behold, attires covering secrets of nudity Attires laying betwixt cheap and expensive costs Thus, nudity is first an attire for all However, man is nude before life and death Certain times be when humans love to forsake their status Nudity becomes the priest of the mind, oh A room to bath - a room for sexual stance Yet man's stance before man is to rule man The rich wear the attire of gathered riches The poor wear the attire of gathered lamentations Fashion?! Fashion is a new trend of insanity Greatly elevated with portraits of nudity Are we not all nude before shadow and birds Before the vultures of hidden places; pathetic sarcasm Aren't we clowns scaring clowns amid clowns Oppressive intimidation - heartless wreckings - lovely hatred Those on expensive attires pew on high tables Those on rags are fed crumbs outside the gate But death feeds on all as supreme parasite Aren't we equal irrespective of status? Selfsame grave beckons Man's nude attire is death, pretending to be no threat Until lifelessness prove it as fate
