Masked
Maybe
We want to shed
The masks
But you won’t let us
.
Maybe we show
Our true selves
Now and then
But go unseen
.
Maybe if we didn’t
Wear a mask
You’d make one
And staple it on
.
With pins through eyebrows
Hooks in mouth
Stapled to ears
And laugh at our protestations

So true though.
creepy, that's the word I'd use too.
not so spooky really, more a reflection of society
Very chilling. Very good.
I printed this out and taped it to my door. I think it's gonna be my theme poem for a while.
Maybe I'll print out another copy and put it in my book bag, too.
