Naked Neighbor

I watched from across the way
My neighbor’s naked body on display
He showed no sign of discretion
An experience I took as a lesson

For me, being a married man
To walk freely naked about the house
Can not be part of the plan
But I couldn’t help but feel
He had the upper hand

In this repressive humidity and heat
Walking freely naked
Would feel mighty sweet
An experience my wife would
Assuredly defeat

So with regret I back away from the window
Leaving my neighbor to his fruitless chores
And, my lesson learned:

 Next time ignore what can only vicariously be yours.
