i was going into the bathroom, E was comeing out
as we passed he said “when you get back i will be naked”
“whatever”

when i walked back into the room E was sitting on the couch
next to the bass player talking to him in the nude
i droped my pants, his chick took off her shirt and jeans

the other guys kept playing and E just talked and smoked
real natural. all i could do was look at his girl

she was currled up fetius style on the arm of the couch
had on a mattiching bra and panties.

i started doing my thing. the band played. e talked
and his girl just smilled. when she did her whole face
smiled, not just her lips, her eyes and nose scrunched up.
the little lines on her forehead and brow radiated “happy”
she had real smooth skin and i wanted to touch her so i did
real lightly.

and e kept talking the band kept playing i kept touching she kept smilling.
it felt real easy. all of us there, i thought
this is how it should be.

people should go to church and take off their clothes, dance, make out with eachothers wife, serch for the word, look for the kingdom, talk essaticly about the dirt between their toe’s



you would think it would feel awkward but it seemed real
natural for us (some of us) to be naked, everyone diging the music, i felt as if we were all the same and the band just played
