Naked Beach

 

 

Wind and sand

Lick the flesh

Not very primed

These are not people

Concerned with the image

Their casing provides

 

They shave their bodies

So as not to obstruct

The view

Of the sun

And its golden hue

Their brown skin

And white toothy smiles

Energized by the life

Given by their god
