On Nakedness Poem by Dr. Antony Theodore

On Nakedness

Rating: 4.6


Truth is naked.
The moon is naked.
The Elephant is naked,
so is the ant
the tiger,
the butterfly,
the monkey.

Adam and Eve were naked
and all inparadise.
So was the creation
because
truth was always naked;
It is and it will be.

As years went by
Humans invented dress,
learned thus to hide the truth.

Capitalists made an industry,
calculated the profits;
Advertised how good it was
to cover the naked truth.

They created slaves;
Made use of the poor workers
in the third world countries
to create dresses of all kinds and fashions.

They saved themoney in the banks
all over the world.

Alas! oneday the capitalist
suffered a heart attack and fell.

The banks profited from his money;

The miserable dress makers
In the factories remained poor
and died in their misery.

Truth is naked
Truth was naked
Truth will always be naked.

Nakedness is vulnerable, and oftentimes the truth means vulnerability. This poem speaks truly to that.

So often things are labeled as the truth, while serving only one side. Truth is what the heart knows and keeps, unaltered. So in seeking truth, one must be true, first, to themselves...in an unselfish manner, for the greater good. Your powerful words point in a positive direction. PEACE.
