Another Brown Body

You're naked, I'm naked,

Can't you see?

We don't have a stitch on,

Just skin and bones,

Some fatty tissues;

Sagging arms and boobs

And stomach,

All left open, free.

We are animals in a circus,

Exhibits you see.

They clap, they whistle,

They jeer, they taunt,

We're soulless refugees.

She ran,

They ran after her,

Kicking her to the ground,

They clapped, they surrounded her;

Taunting and jeering

She was naked all around.

Humanity was dancing

Her last dying dance;

Yet they kept on kicking and kicking her,

Seeing that scene macabre

I felt unsound.

A Goddess is worshiped

In a temple;

But who was she?

So naked, so naked,

Just another brown body?
