The mask's a thing of fashion. Can’t you see?
It boldly states the new identity.
People must make a statement with the eyes.
The smile or frown is something we now hide.
We stealth behind expressions of the self
revealing secret likes to someone else.
Militant, flowered, skulls and Mickey Mouse
parade in the pandemic out the house.
Any wardrobe would seriously lack
if not in possession of basic black.
It seems that everyone has choice of play
in what they want to represent that day.
Whatever your choosing, brush up your teeth.
It makes the wearing better underneath.
