Note: this time of year we tend to dive into fictional horror looking for a good scare. My reflection is that the current horrors of our reality are more frightening than the fiction.--Giada
***********************
When you look around
notice the fact, everyone
wears some sort of mask.
Some are quite scary,
others are funny or kind,
but all masks obscure.
The virus has been
the revealer of us all,
laying bare mean truths.
What we hide behind
is now plainly obvious,
the curtain been pulled.
We’re now all exposed;
pettiness, intolerance,
failings of us all.

Paul4playover 3 years agoAgreed.
Our reality cannot be matched by any fiction.
And our masks reveal all....
29wordsforsnowover 3 years agoOh, Democrazy
the stars have fallen
from fl...rags in the wind
the stripes tied to nets
to catch the falling
by those still dreaming
and waking each morning
under merry warm blankets
printed with unicorns and supermen
those who raise their lovable voices
for a liveable future
cause the rage won't heat us
the hate won't feed us

Thanks for sharing a harsh naked truth, Giada
