Analysis of Naked is the Dollar
goes back and forth,
from south to north
to pick up those,
where naked is
Escourts to the right!
Escourts to the left!
Forward is bereft of them!
Early morning stars
straddle's the line
Exchange the dream,
at the free fare zone.
Relinquish the pride, and
reboard-the north bound,
Take time; to make time
it's always at the end,
of the line.
