Mask

 [Mask]

The model mask, the medical mask,

The non-political mask. Don’t ask.

The unspeakable mask, the spoken-for mask,

The chinless wonder, three-ply downunder.

The bergamask, the back-off mask,

The bigger better mask. Bugger the mask.

The smile mask, vote mask, breathe mask,

Style mask, float mask, death mask.

Good to see you, what there is of you to see.

Nice to put a name to a mask.

This waiting game. This florid mouthguard

When the signal all-clear. The lip synch.

This strap-on task. This nosy farce.

When’s party time. The Hallelujah Chorus.
