FROM THE MULTI-POLAR MIND OF A RECOVERING EX-USER

Gone Down

The sun has gone down in the west:
It's the night after day
And the end of a test.
I'd never have guessed that it would end this way
But a change is as good as a rest, so they say.

Though through your eyes you gift to me
Answers which I did not seek,
There's still one question I must ask:
Why do you wear the mirror-mask?

  1. The wall has come down in the east
    It's the day after night
    And all hell's been released.
    They're feeding the beast on Big Macs and fries
    But choice is to feast on the heart of a lie

  3. There is no mask that I wear
    My face is as blank as nothing at all
    The left's just a gown
    That I wear to The Ball

  4. The mask you see
    Belongs to me,
    It's there for my protection.
    To save my mind
    From thoughts unkind -
    Returned by its reflection

  5. the moon has gone full in the south:
    it's not like an eye, it's more of a mouth;
    there's still one thought I must emit:
    remove your mask to take a hit.
