Shedding the Mask
Calm outward veneer,
Porcelain finely crafted,
A cultivated image.
Beneath it lurks a
Devious mind filled
With luxurious pleasures and
Warm silken treasures
Not left on display,
Merely hinted at.
Yet often are found
Draperies, fabrics
Pooled loosely on
The ground, left
And there forgotten.
Abandoned
In order to wear
Another's skin.
Another Gem
among gems. Invisibility vs facade - and the real revealed/exposed - enjoyed this one too. Hope you are succeeding in all you do. ~allets~
