Masks

Masks put on 
to face the world
Masks concretized 
to become face
Tortured grimace hides
Behind smiling exteriors
Thoughts, sordid or lofty
Locked under set stance
Impossible to crack
Impregnable as mountains
The mask lives on 
through life
The mask lives on 
beyond death.

Masks crafted
to impress
Masks constructed
to mislead
Agenda unrevealed
Falsification concealed
Photoshopped
Cropped and edited
Living dual lives, or more
Realities beyond reality
A world full of masks
Unable, unwilling
to unmask
in life and death.
