Poems - Unclassified - Leanne's 'Skimpies'
Two bodies on show
Masculine and Feminine
Reduced to naught by 'sex'
Slim covering, for all to see
First the male (divine creation)
Contemporary Michelangelo
A work of art, muscles and anatomy
On show between gathered company
Second the female (biblical this Eve)
A Venus De Milo
With arms though
And curves, ripe body we see
Our bodies, much admired
Sometimes for play or jest
Can provoke discomfort, even deteste
For some who wish not to see
Maybe though,
Beautiful bodies provide ill show
Out of context
This Venus and Michelangelo
For 'David' wears a 'g'
And Venus sports some racey red
No artful eye to gaze
But lustful and amazed instead
Forget though,
For a moment
That context plays a part
For still, these bodies are a work of art.
