Gymniad - I

I remember, more than half
a century ago,
wondering why we humans
couldn't allow our bodies
to be seen.
I just couldn't
understand it.
But now,
more than fifty years later,
it turns out that
we couldn't
because we didn't.

In the words of a famous anthropologist,
"There are many ways
of being human."

In the words of a famous,
perhaps mythical,
"brujo,"
"Choose a path
with heart."

In the words of
an obscure poet,
"Stay naked,
if you can."
