Have you noticed, well I'm sure you have. That masks have holes in them only for your eyes, hiding the rest of your face. Possibly making it hard to breath. And surly causing your voice to be turned down.
What type of trick to treat is that? Covering up who you are, taking your air, tampering your voice, possibly scaring people and tricking yourself. I know it's close to Halloween, but I ask that you take off your mask. Show who you truly are and don't allow the peep hole of a mask that doesn't show the real you be the only vision others have of you.
"Who put your mask on,
surly not you
who indicated this false
to be true
who colored the colors
outlined the frame
who did you allow
to dictate your name
holes of view
what do you see
are you dimmed
to lights degree
are you slightly in squint
to avoid the eyelashes
from touching the rim
quickly closing
as normal reaction
is your voice screaming
yet sounding so faint
are you gasping
for the air
chocking on paint
plastic does not rip
nor does cloth break
your choices are slim
tied to suffocate"
