they were all wearing masks

 

they were all wearing masks

in the photo it was


very interesting 

almost an optical illusion

there are no bodies 

only faces

yet they are not faces

but stimuli to our inner prejudices 

a wall of preconceptions 

that cannot be circumvented 

until it is seen as such

masks are a gateway

locked with a combination 

of expressions


then i thought

who drew the masks

were they on this side of the illusion

or the other side

how many sides are there to an illusion

when the mask slips

who replaces it


and then there is the elastic

that snaps back in 


ouch


oh i don’t know
