I put on this great little homemade mask. 506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCPiW6YYOZ4
cracked papier mache,506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ57tFH4egow
cheery smiling face.

and everyday you walk past.506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtBjJ6sVGOY
the hand holding the mask trembles but506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXofev4sHZB
stays, firmish, like some lone priest 506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy4y2yijwoB
at some abandoned temple, the frail figure 506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUoL7OkrsrN
who amidst those tourists506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpk4rAqyhDf
is the only one left who believes in the gods 506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ8oTUL6zhZ
his precious church was built to exalt.

we want to get that mask off, right506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDDda7spUxw
but lost in those surging waves of inky, shrieking, metaphors506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCRvk4iD8Dm
and the neverending tears from a splattered brush of fingers 506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6aslgXn8HO
and gross bloody tendons dripping from a heart onto the carpet506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg9Yvi9Dvzt
the mask clutches me in terror.
It’d be cruel to take it off now, in this storm. I need to keep it safe506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Ak8IZgEtA
sheltered from rain that patters away at it506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtFP0MnNfaf
—gnawing. Little sparkling fangs ripping out fibres.

Maybe later, though,506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcdI0qFb9xw
when the sun comes out again,506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFaKqtkGTvm
I'll throw the mask away, into the fluffy air506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRS5L1kFZn7
kiss it goodbye506Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSxqrxz4gKu
and skip, childlike, into the warmth of something happy.
