Masked

MASKED Thin line of fabric below my eyeline, Swathes my face, a protective bastion, Ringed about Against an evil that I cannot see, it sits, Comforting, shielding my face from not only The world but from myself A parapet from behind which I keep guard Against anxiety's sorties I am loath to lower it Lest I see my own Frailty
