Arlene Corwin Poetry

      Naked Is Quicker

They cover their voices –

Double record,

Filters,

Over track,

Overplay:

Covering over.

It enriches.

After all, it covers over.

And it hides.

Nakedness.

It’s simpler – the simplest.

Let’s divulge,

Disclose,

Expose.

Let’s be transparent.

They cover their voices:

Fonts and pictures

Cover to sell:

Cover-to-sell.

Covering tells.

Coin spent;

Invention

For evasion.

Naked is quicker.

The cover is slicker.

They cover their voices.

Not I.
