Expose the Naked Truth

In sheep's clothing they infiltrate, call you mate, lie in wait;
these sly wolves who seek to harm and disarm with charm.
It's a clever deed, founded in greed and meant to mislead.
Their nakedness would reveal the heart of steel they conceal.

Search behind the glint in their eyes to see their lies and alibis
Strip vile ones naked of that pseudo smile, glimpse their guile
Lay bare the amiable mask they wear. They will dare to ensnare.
Don't be naive and believe words spewed by those who decieve.

It's not uncouth to play the sleuth and expose the naked truth
of those who stalk and walk about while praising with sweet talk.
Don't be a fool thinking they're cool. It's a heap of wolfen stool.
Be shrewed! Denude the lewd ones so you don't get screwed.

Hi Marti I am new to you. Wolfen stool? Ok that works. Thing is : in my country ine is surrounded by con men. It seems when times are hard ,these types come out of their burrows. Bill Joel said : everyone is so untrue. We poets cannot have that luxury. We must stick together. I like your poem a lot .
