Skin Deep
Spelling out the nature of this that I despise
The stench of beauty exploited that tempts the beholders eyes
Raunchy from the innocence of what first was intended
Perversity idolatry, eroticism from purity descended
Bathing in the filth of our bodies exposed
Immodest in the will to sell
Profits at an all time high undisclosed
As pleasures pave way to usher them to hell
Identity stolen by the politics of domesticated culture
Immorality circling dead spirits like a bloodthirsty vulture
Youth siphoned through the corruption of indoctrinations of false unity
Revolution hate in a parade of pride for lovers of a depraved community
Skin deep and appetites twisted
Claim tolerance when it’s born of your will to self reject
Playing God when everything that you resisted
Was born from a place of your inability to accept
We are cut from the same cloth of this adulterated flesh
Our demons kin to common lusts in various expressions of desire
In the aftermath of brokenness and different forms of molest
You’ll never walk in truth as long as you’re in love with a liar…

Thank you, I’m not exactly sure what you’re saying, but I’m glad you liked the poem.

Intense lust and want in sexual desire are a repulsive and disgusting, when out in the open. It belongs behind closed doors. Whatever happened to civility, class, and PDA to keep that between couples?! The three forms of love in Agape, Phileo, and Eros have all been ruined and trashed by modern day society. Everything centers around sex, and "sexual identity." Whatever happened to being a good old-fashioned husband or wife, and/or parent? Those are defining roles, not whatever twisted fantasy your get a thrill from, and identify as. The whole dating scene would have you think that perverted fantasy is a form of identity. That's insanity. Fornication doesn't define you; it destroys the mind. They're confusing our children in our schools with this nonsense. Sorry, but a child doesn't know their "sexual identity." This so-called "sex life" thing is just an excuse to market promiscuous and immoral sex, like you depict in this poem. Why would you need to go through an "experimental" stage with it? To "be in control" of what you "want?" It all ends in gross and awkward memories, broken homes, corrupted youth, etc. Holy matrimony and monogamy have their blessings when they work right.
Anyway, elongated rant aside, you capture a lot of what's wrong in society quite well in this poem. I'm glad there's actually SOMEONE out there with a brain! Nice language and metaphors used to show what this nasty thing needs to be seen as. Nice transition and rhymes too. Overall, as you can see, I think this is a good poem, as it got me fired up to agree with, heh. Thanks for sharing this.
