Do Not Go Naked

do not go naked

It was always a fine line -

hard to know​​ 

which side to trod

never crossing over​​ 

but staying close enough

to see the other side.

be vulnerable they said

but don’t go naked to work

be loving they said

but not too much

and not the wrong person

….or the wrong time

be yourself

but always within the frame

be honest,

tell us what we want to hear

and above all

do NOT go naked to church.
