[hometext] => ...for all the masks we wear
[bodytext] => What mask of masks will I don today My mask of terror cast in fired clay? Perhaps another one of passion An amorous seductive mask Painted face and red lips The art of love, such a task A mask of sadness sometimes this one I'll wear made from torn Paper mache' and tatty barbie doll hair The mask of happiness behold this rare sight Shiny glass streams shooting from a soul so bright. The reddened enraged mask Stencilled on with hate It's a painful one to view and so out of date Thin veil of a mask transparent for some to see the inner trappings of the broken mind tend to humble and disgrace me The mask of tragedy fake faced and twisted in pain Held in place with safety pins a bloodied under layer, all that remains Cold and angered is the bluish mask of ice Chipped and chiselled away by my own device And then there is the mask impossible to ever put aside Hatred and self-loathing my fault, my guise 3/28/11 [comments] => 4 [counter] => 160 [topic] => 61 [informant] => deadheadpoet [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => selfstruggles )

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
