Sins of the Flesh

Fränz Müller

Tell me why

my naked body

is such a problem

to others?

were we not

all born this way

when we departed

from our mothers?

I stand before you

as I was

fearfully and wonderfully made

but somewhere

you have lost the plot

and let your sunshine fade.

So put aside

what you’ve been taught

and strip down with a smile

and show each other what we’ve got

and just be nude a while!

    A beautiful poem that speaks the naked truth that we are ashamed of our nakedness and even our words we cloth in masks. Well written

  • Tristan Robert Lange

    Fränz, this is such a joyful and liberating poem! You confront body shame with warmth, humor, and an irresistible invitation to stop taking ourselves so seriously. Wonderful work, my friend! 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛

  • Cheeky Missy

    Ha! Only under certain circumstances. Oh the indulgence! Beautifully rendered with excellent imagery and a tantalizing poignancy. You naughty boy.

    • Fränz Müller

      Aw, thank you! I aim to please! ☺️

    • Mutley Ravishes

      Franz, maybe this is going off on another tangent, but could it be that it's not really the revealing of the naked flesh that drives the lust, but something else?

      Are naked bodies should never be ashamed your poem did great justice

    • NafisaSB

      Most of us are too shy to reveal both our body and our thoughts 🤔

      • Fränz Müller

        I encourage everyone to reveal both to the world, and to be comfortable in their own skin, and be free!

        • NafisaSB

          Yes one should be comfortable in ones own skin but there are too many constraints both social , religious(plus shyness ) that prevent some of us from revealing at least the physical details whereas I feel that one should have all the freedom to express their thoughts- this is my personal opinion

          • Fränz Müller

            Of course! You should follow your faith and your heart. Only you know what’s best for you. Thank you for your feedback and may you have a wonderful day!
