Two forms of nude co-exists in this painting
One, being without clothing or any covering
Second, to pose without clothing in painting
Nude is also a mindset, reflected in openness
Avoiding anything that might prevent clarity
The flesh is a given, all who exist have it
The body simply is, neither dirty nor ugly
But many are taught to deny their being
Many believe sex must be demeaning
Assuming whatever is done in secret
Must be dirty or wrong, false or lies
Many lives are composed of falsehoods
But some things ought to be kept in secret
We've already had all of our intimacy stolen
By the lust, by the gossip, by prurient interest
While modernity is advanced, morals fail us?
We are followed and watched every moment
Eyes from machines and A.I. chase us
The web of cameras encase us
But somehow we seem to become blind
Too many views, confuse the mind
