Costume of Happiness

Location

My costume is the day to day

not Halloween, the holiday of the eternal smile

The eternal smile

Everyone looks for that infinite line

Dug under the infinite  line is a bullet hole of compassion

scars of experience

the potential to cry for someone unknown

courage ready to shout out something that should not be said

everyone looks for the infinite line

one day, they may not find it
