The challenge this week is to write syllabic poetry about what lies behind the mask. Thanks to Yvette and Colleen for the inspiration.
knives within their hearts
a perfect smile that could kill
a confident gait
a befitting mask to win,
to dazzle the admirers
***
the show continues
till you creep behind their skin
to uncover the lies
true tales tumble out soon
finally, the facade falls
