Why is Nudity in Public Taboo?

I want to walk in the nude
Down a busy city street
Do my everyday business
With out being discreet

I hope that I would be joined
By others with this urge
We could start a movement
To fight the prudish scourge

When we've won a victory
And you need not be attired
We could extend our remit
Privacy for sex is also not required

We could then all show our lust
To all who want to see
A public orgy might then ensue
Join in this sex for free

Why do we hide these natural functions
From all of human kind?
The animal in us must overcome
Such distortions of the mind

dark----title and category

the quarter chronicles


im a blind man
i still hold the door
for a woman with a handful of luggage
i could never afford
no thank yous'
or yes sirs

but if i wail and moan outside
she may toss a penny or two
i hope for niether
she had shark's eyes
those that you only see
before someone slits your throat
or lifts a car too heavy
to save your life

i would have given it to the bellhop anyways
there was a woman digging in the dumpster
i gave my free sandwich to

sometime later that day
i was playin and singin a lil zack wylde
outside the hotel doors
cuz thas where you find the rich folk
she removed the cross from her neck
tossed it in my bag
said "somebody is always watching"
and moved along

about noonish i moved to st james
where more rich people frequent
played a bit of dylan "annie"
she had just won a $10,000 scratch off
shooed the birds away
i did'nt know why
they are my favorite fans
dropped a fin
and said again
"somebody is always watching"

i always wanted to be a ben spender
a rim spinner
i'm pretty sure she knew pete
and he spoke highly of me
as she made her way up the street
i noticed the bloodstains on the half sheet
she called a shirt
the dirt
where there were once holes in the back half

she seemed very aggressive
it's not god's fault angels remove their wings
but he sure as hell has something to do with it
i told her
"i'm sure i'll see you soon woman
the only thing worth killing
is killing time
for now
but
bye"

Loneliness, stalking these emotions of heart
No comfort or love, bereft of warmth of heart
Barren horizon, echo of nothingness, bleeding of heart
Saddness deepens to the abyss never felt in heart.

Heart wretching pangs, bitterness of tenderness lost
Morass of pity, bleakness of darkness, closeness lost
Words softly spoken, tender touch, tactile kiss, forever lost
Beating hearts of unison, echo forever now lost

Lost love, lost laughter and smiles, taken away
Perfectness of feelings, shared and spoken so far away
Through changing of person, challenges, cast away
Life has no more beauty, evaporated in mist, float away

Away i dream, for this love can never compare
The stare upon deep fulfilling eyes
Now forgotten
Snatched away
From the loving of beating heart.

I'll see you in the ninth circle   anger



But it's the lies I hate the most
Christ, one quick look in your eyes
 gave everything away

no need to explain

I mean
we've played this game countless times
and both lost
because there are no winners
or prizes
how could there be

If I were you, and you were me
there'd be holy war
