Masks

Revelers wear masks without complaint On Halloween, which makes me wonder Why we find it hard to practice restraint, Commonsense and friendships we squander By casting good scientific practices asunder. written October 19, 2021

Your poem is exceptionally well-written and beautifully stated. When it comes to Halloween masks, the mouth and nose aren't often the only features.
