Stripped Naked

Stripped naked to your wily deceit,
You stand hollow with deadly defeat.

Stripped naked to your cruelsome greed,
You stand like a morbid, ugly weed.

Stripped naked to your frail vanity,
You stand sans simple sense, sanity.

Stripped naked to your devious lust,
You stoop lowest, worse than worm in dust.

Quake-shaken, ripped, rob(b)ed off your sheer shame
In glaring-baring; gone is your sham(e).

See your rickety repute crumble,
I know now why you mumble-fumble.

At long last you stand exposed threadbare.
Deny the naked truth if you still dare!
