Lemon Is Lime Nor Orange

Faces feign, flaunt many a mask, strange Countless veils, copiously cunning range, In mighty terror still Truth mirrors with own will, Chameleons camouflage, feign a change, One may hide behind mask— Unequal to the task, But lemon can be lime nor orange. ____________________________________________________ Most of us often wear a mask and think that we fool others. The truth however is, we are only fooling ourselves. For, we can’t feign things for long. A chameleon knows his kind. And mirrors make no mistakes, nor are in errors. Face may feign, but still all in vain. Note: This poem was written in 2015. It has nothing to do with the mask meant against Corona. ____________________________________________________ Reflections | 02.03.15 |
