Write as you are

You’re right when you write
Your thoughts are yours to express
But how do you dress

Are you commando
Is it freedom you require
When writing satire

Not your birthday suit
More comfortable in clothes
When you compose prose

I’m not just naked
Shower, add toiletry, then
Rhyme some poetry

If the subject’s Trump
Even if I get laughter
I shower after

Please don’t be bashful
Let us know your preference
Just for reference

++ Of you liked this one, you might like this one. ++
