Masquerades and Charades (Written 9/24/09)

Brightly colored faces

With their glittering smiles

They spin in circles

Everyone is looking at

You

Keep up the dance

Don’t stop moving

Shift your feet

Wave your arms

And whatever you do

Don’t stop smiling

Keep the mask

Pressed against your face

Let them all see the smile

Let them all take in the dance

Don’t let them see the tears

Don’t let them know your hate

It’s the perfect disguise.
