Thinking back to days on stage.


Poem Artwork

Masque donned a masquerade
Backdrop....life
Stage left act so surprised
Mezmerized
Full of strife

Comedy first comes on
Play the part
Stage left the curtain drops
Change the props
Part Two start

Tragedy' frowning face
Enter right
Damsel can't comfort him
Lookin' dim
Dim the light

Every time I don a mask, lifes wind blows it off. I keep changing props too but the stage stays the same though.

I stand here with pride
Center stage
Stark naked
With nothing to hide
Dim the light.

I can surely relate to the theme expressed through your verses here, Jane. I wrote a poem "Keep Smiling" which I posted here at AD quite a while back. I think it expresses a similar concept. Love and best wishes,

Yesss, this is right on when we wear masks, and who doesn't from time to time, and that is a very sad way to live. Lose the mask, look life square in the face and buck up who really are. I found myself doing that just recently. Does the world look more lovely? You bet!! Am I happier every day since that day. Damn straight. This is in-your-face poetry, Jane.
