Harlequin

Life is one big ball,
Masquerade,
Masquerade,
Masks everywhere,
Life is just one big ball,

Lie a little,
Live a little,
Love a little,
Hide,

Two faces,
Two faces,
Masquerade ball

Two faces,
Two faces,
Masquerade ball,

I am the Harlequin,
Making you laugh,
You are the jester,
Stuck in a fool's dance,
Together like puppets- we are fools,
No one knows,
No one sees,
What we truly are,
What we see,

Lie a little,
Live a little,
Love a little,
Hide,

Two faces,
Two faces,
Masquerade ball,

Two faces,
Two faces,
Masquerade ball.

[Coyote Poetry]

The poem is very good. The repetition of your words made the poem strong and the purpose of this poem very clear. You are correct. We wear many masks in a life. If we are lucky we can be our self in the comfort of home. A outstanding poem. Thank you.
