Masks, masks, so many masks.
…many shapes, many colours, many expressions…
elegantly crafted,
artfully painted,
gracefully sitting on all faces.

Caring
loving
laughing
smiling
compassionate masks.

Beneath the masks…
proud
arrogant
cruel
cunning
selfish
manipulative
egoistic­
ruthless faces –
hypocrisy writ large on all of them!

Real faces,
real faces of real men…
faces with the innocence we’re born with…
where’ve all they gone?
