Let's All Go Naked

when we are without our clothes
no one knows our rags nor riches
no one knows our highs nor lows
when we are without our stitches

when we are all naked stark
no one knows just who we are
nor do they know the part
that we play in life's shopping cart

you may ask what am i suggesting 
perhaps we should all go naked
we'd then be on equal footing
and wouldn't that there be a blessing

Mike, even though I like this poem I'm not about to shed my stitches, lol!:) (If I did people would be in stitches!!)
