Interlude
Location
Interlude
The face behind
Sees and can be seen into,
Yet only
To perceive
All as illusion –
Feelings and emotions
Picked from context
Revile thoughts within,
Yet the rest is buried deep behind
Flesh and costume.
Presentation is what is begot
As viable truth,
But what the truth is:
A masquerade of souls
Dancing to the tunes of
Mortality.
From one song
To the next
All begins
Then ends.
Moments are erased
With time and
Space
As the next
Experience
Becomes
Present.
After each presentation
The mask is changed,
And the eyes
Behind the flesh
See with
A different facade.
