I saw mask to mask faceless <br />Yet <br />Each mask had a face <br />Specific <br />And in the faceless mask <br />There was beauty <br />There was beauty of the gaudy <br />There was beauty of the painted <br />Yet it was beauty <br />All the same, beauty. <br /> <br />Dancing <br />The masks <br />For it was deepening <br />Night <br />And <br />It was dark <br />Deepening: <br />Dancing <br />Dancing <br />Mask to mask <br />And <br />The more night grew deep <br />As in direct proportion <br />The number of the mask to <br />Mask did leap. <br /> <br />For <br />I saw mask to mask faceless <br />Yet <br />Each mask had a face <br />Specific <br />And in the faceless mask <br />There was beauty <br />There was beauty of the gaudy <br />There was beauty of the painted <br />Yet it was beauty <br />All the same, beauty.<br /><br />Emmanuel George Cefai<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/mask-to-mask/
