skewered
Run through lengthwise
Skewered means pierced through with a pointed stick or rod, typically for cooking: skewered shrimp on the grill, chunks of meat skewered and roasted.
Figuratively, to be skewered is to be sharply criticized or mocked, as if impaled: The comedian skewered politicians in his routine, Her book skewered corporate culture.
