minds, contaminated*
female virginity
eternal purity
its lack: the primary taboo
before during after matrimony
timeless obsession
ageless restrain
tireless phobia
true loves chained
vibrant lives ruined
oh, my sweet home country
depossess your manhood already
conceive your women in whole
remember the wisdom they wore
countless centuries before
see the substance beyond the frame
stop being a fool of inordinate fame
make yourself a new name
the bodies are never the ones to blame
