Softness, saliva tongue and entrance
the body and its desires
irrepressible dreams of skins
and pleasure
no longer frightened
or guilty
Society and its cage
why the discomfort for something all quite natural
and the control
which is biased
why should females suffer the greater consequences
for desires.

Sex--its hold over us
our fear, our fascination
our wanting it
our running away from it
pretending it doesn't run at the base of our lives
a lie
or rather
distractions from the fact
that all of our civilisation
all of history which erases
or ommits this fact--
is founded on that basic act
every animal and man knows in his/her instinct.

What is so scary about the truth?
Ridiculous jokes about stocks and crane deliveries
Babies, new life
becomes something of a myth
and sex a dark secret
which has become dirty
What are we afraid of?

Why turn away from the truth which comes at
the foundation
of our existence
we cannot look ourselves in the mirror
or tolerate our nakedness
or the fact that the most fundamental of human acts
has become perversion
and attained the status of sin and evil.

We live a lie, and call it purity.
Rosaline is a hypocrite
the chaste moon goddess
a fool
as are we all
to think we should let our blind eyes
grow
and take deep roots
in our being
while ignorant or the monsters
they forge in us.
It is us we are afraid of
we are afriad of our naturalness
our bodies
to the extent that we should have to cover it
and call it modesty.


Shame.
We should look at the word
and reconsider ourselves.
