Since I hate writing about myself I'll leave you this instead.
For me ,the naked and the nude (By lexicographers construed As synonyms that should express The same deficiency of dress Or shelter) stand as wide apart As love from lies, or truth from art.
Lovers without reproach will gaze On bodies naked and ablaze.
The Hippocratic eye will see
In nakedness shines the goddess when
She mounts her lion among men
The nude are bold, the nude are sly
To hold each treasonable eye While dripping by a showman’s trick Their dishabille in rhetoric,
They gain a mock –religious grin Of scorn at those of naked skin,
The naked, therefore, who compete Against the nude may know defeat
Yet when they both together tread
The briary pasture of the dead,
By gorgons with long whips pursed,
How naked go the sometimes nude.
Robert Graves

This last assignment was like studying programming language. I felt like a child at school. All fault of mine. My computer was reformatted last month when I was in Makkah and the fool didn't replace it with English, he placed Arabic instead. NOW! I have a computer which types in Arabic, unfortunately I don't have AraOctober 2, 100 words. → 1 comment, Add one?
