Dirty Little Secret

Dirty little secret, dark and dim,
hides in the heart of human sin,
tinkers with the truth and closes eyes,
fudges with the facts and tells its lies.

Open up the window, let light in,
throw away the cover, see how thin
is the little secret now revealed,
funny how it withers unconcealed.
