If I take my clothes off,
What's left? My naked body!
My clothes are not me: they are
What covers me!
If I renounce the psychological influences tattooed on my personality
What's left? My soul itself!
The psychological influences tattooed are not me: they are
What I pretend to be true...
Clothes... Psychological influences...
They just cover the real, which can be seen in photographies
Or through these poems which I write!
Nice poem with a philosophical touch. It offers a new light to analyse 'self'. Thanks.
