Naked Soul
Bright moonlight from heaven above
And flickering rays from tiny stars
Unveils the stealth of a soul so bare
Lying beneath a colossal, blue mass
An impoverished, naked soul
Exposed to myriad prying eyes
Of the glaring radiance of sun
And of darkness of an eclipsed night
Dearth of persistent humility
Affluence of disparaging humiliation
Zillion catastrophic wounds
And a few blessed fortunes
Mask the bareness of this being
Yet, it stands naked amidst souls so mean
