I wrote this short poem under the impression of not pure intentions!

Mask!

Try not to wear other people's mask!
It’ll rub out the face for sure…
Don’t avoid the thing I ask:
The intentions need to remain pure!

Interesting fact!

A unique culture was created in Venice. An important place was given to concealment of a person's personality. Masks were used in everyday life. Venice was a small city and many residents preferred to hide their faces under the masks. They wanted that their neighbors don't know what they're doing, where they go and who they meet. Later the law was enacted which prohibited the wearing of masks. To wear masks it was possible only during a carnival.

«Never judge your own poem too harshly. If you love it, then someone else loves it too, just the way it is. If it speaks to you - it's good. And not all poetry is meant to rhyme, either. If it sounds good and makes sense - if it changes the reader at all - it's good.»
