Random Thoughts12 Birthday Suit Biography

Dirty, greasy, I smell like fried chicken. Sweat is trickling, Stinking. It got me thinking!!!! I need to wash my birthday suit, Body wash by Hollister* Newport Beach, Smells of a musky fruit. awesome scent, kinda sweet, I start at my feet. Scrub away the repulsive smell relax away the painful swell.. Scrub thy legs, all of them cleanliness is key. the soap suds wash away, there is a bruise on my knee! I continue on to my abdomen rippled, tough, strong, rough. the scrubbing reddens my ivory skin. To my hairy chest, the matted mess, upward, I scrub my neck. Wash my hair, conditioning with care, time to shave my face. Pick up my razor blade, my daily strokes of grace. I rinse the sudsy residue, watch it spiral down the drain. I look in the mirror at my birthday suit, confidence in vein..... Jared Pickett 9/11/09 Asavvy1
