Why would you want nude boxes?

How long after picking up the brush, the first masterpiece?

The goal is not to obfuscate that which is clear, but make clear that which isn't.

In addition to its open abilities, it has close as well.

                                Our god's withdrawn;
                                our passion cold.
                                We cannot bear;
                                we cannot hold.
                               
                                Our human skin
                                splits down to bone.
                                Our soul departs,
                                for parts unknown.
                               
                                At least the cat's
                                not bid adieu;
                                it seems aged meat's
                                an tasty chew.
