Shared By All Poem by Sean Green

Dare I show some flesh
metaphorical or in the real
to demonstrate a common ground
between myself and readers' minds?

if the answer is a yes
the outcome is preordained
as the words and lack of clothes
reveal the person beneath the mask

weakness put to the front
transformation now divulged
down to the skin and beyond
until disclosure becomes old

with a twist that's laughable
or just ironic in pure hindsight
nothing new is ever shown
nudity is shared by all.
