Love both the words and th photo. Was the latter yours? Good luck in the vote. Now what in the heck have I more to say to qualify this dorky rule of 150 characters?

    Wow, thank you for the awesome review and big sixer, Tom. I was beginning to think that no one on here had the smarts to figure out what I was actually saying. Lol. It took forever just to get my second review. Ha.

    No, the killer picture is just something I found through a Google Image search. I wish I had a fraction of this talent. I like to paint and create digital art but I can't come close to this.

    Yeah, that 150 character rule is a bit ridiculous.

    I really appreciate the generous stars, friend. I'm glad you liked the piece. Thank you again and have a great day.

Good poem for the writing prompt. Like the idea of masquerade masks. I'm not sure how masks "in ruse upon." If the intend is to make these words mean intrude then I think it is a beautiful image of the image intruding on poetry's innocence or perhaps in ruse with poetry's innocence.

    It's just that a lot of folks believe that everything they read is absolute truth on here. We can hide under any persona's mask we choose for the day. Maybe innocence is the exact word I'm looking for here. Who knows? I was a little tipsy when I wrote it. Lol. Thank you for the great review and stars, Theodore. I'm glad you liked the piece.

This poem speaks your feeling in shade of ruse, truth is guarded in poetic innocence; a good confession in today's state of living; well said, well done; post more. ALCREATOR LITT DEAR (D R)
