So many have come to dwell behind a panarchy mask <br />Lost between the delusive dimensions of identity <br />Unable to perceive that which is deemed real <br /> <br />They dare not throw aside the caparison that veils the real <br />Lest those that wish to deceive and to mask <br />Would reveal the abstersive truth of their own identity <br /> <br />Yet if all would but don the verisimilitude of their identity <br />Then the shadows cast would corrivate into the real <br />And no longer would there lie merit within a mask <br /> <br />Are you the mask of your identity or are you real?<br /><br />Sheri Walters<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/facade-a-tritina/
