Here is my mask poem that I had to write for English a while back. It is titled "No Mask I Wear". Cue dramatic music and begin reading.
No Mask I Wear
by Chris Elms
No Mask I Wear today,
Or even yesterday.
Their mask, it smiles and jives,
As they try to live easier lives,
Waiting for someone to save them.
While I'm not a hero, or even a saint,
I always refuse to hide behind depraved war paint.
The world turns its head, but still
No Mask I Wear.
Sugar-coated and looked over; there has to be a better way.
The time is near when you can't take what they say;
Deception and misery love company, almost like wives.
The world may not give approbation, for questioning their ways,
But soon they will see why
No Mask I Wear!
Please hold your applause, unless you are just about to bust. Then go right ahead. I don't think it would be good for someone to bust. Kinda messy.
