We leave the house

With our clothes, purse and our mask

For the illusion of sanity

Is the only way to complete our task,

That of being a part of the flock

By leaving our truth behind a lock.

The mask slips,

Horror on everyone’s lips

For a pink dove is magical

But the moment it snaps

It is terrible.

Darling the costume party

Was not waiting for you

It was waiting for a reflection

Of itself,

Another copy for its collection

But how can I be another human

When not even our noses are alike?

Waiting for everyone to say sike

But the truth is I was not made to jump

I was made to hike.
