The Law of Life : Adult Poetry

written by Poet : EC


Naked
but only to my inner eye
this laser-like organ microscoping
telescoping, all in one movement
testified my nakedness

as I said, naked, yes even to the bones
shining white as if cleaned by vultures
this lack of armours in flesh or clothes hurt
still, I brave it and watch each bone that's me
by now I wish my eye was a little less sharp
it's too clever for love and love one must
not loving what's in the mirror is a grave sin
trusting and naked we were born
as such we deserve boundless love
this isn't optional, it's prescribed, it's the law
