Haiku Horizons has the prompt: mask.
The Mask
We all wear a mask.
Few see who we really are—
It is protection
◊
We all wear a mask.
We wear many masks, in fact.
Playing many roles.
◊
We all wear a mask.
Clowns have known the truth for years.
Survival tactic.

Nice chain.
ReplyDeleteEven without physically wearing one we all wear a mask. Funny that one likes not to reveal much of ourselves! Very true Cosmo!

I wish any of my masks were as dramatic, exotic and beautiful as the one pictured.

We hunt after this
In seasons that hold ever
That road used to hope
(message in first letters)
Tricky to do and that's the truth.
