Face Mask
Somtimes the face mask is just a face mask.
Often the face masks matures
showing the life-roads that a person has chosen,
for good or worse.
Always forgiveness has no mask.
Sometimes beauty hides an ugliness,
more often ugliness hides the beauty.
Mostly, a homily face veils the light of God.
Appearance and perception are a magic trick,
not of any mask
but of those who judge it.
A mask cannot hide the perfection
from those who have taken off
their own masks.
