The Mask We Wear

>I bet you’ve heard

A fox in a herd

Wearing the sheep mask

>But have you ever seen

A lion in the green

Meowing beneath a hidden façade

>It roars in the cave

Like it is big and brave

But a deer never heard its steps

> It roars like king

Majestic, mighty thing

But the folks never sung its lore

> The little meow

Hidden from the crowd

Dreams big of screaming a roar

But at the end it sleeps

With its big fat dreams

Until hunger hits with power

>Then it comes out

With the hated, foul

Smell of its own façade

>Takes a run

For a little cowardly bun

Which makes its way out

> The deer sleeps

Has a big fat dream

Of a king who finds him out

He opens his eyes

And silently sighs

Laughing at the façade’s scheme
