The Mastery of Make-Up
A Rhyming Alliterisen Contest Offering10 total reviews
Comment from Sandra du Plessis
A very well-written rhyming alliteresen poem with a very sad subject. The art of make-up is often applied to hide the pain and marks of an abusive retlationship, many people can see beyond the make-up art.

Our eyes reveal so much even when we don't want them to. This is an excellent posting and I really like the changing font colors, as well. Best wishes in the contest!

Comment from Janice Canerdy
This poem is so well-written and moving. No, those deep hurts can't be fully concealed by make-up--no matter how magically it is applied; but,
as your last line says, it can produce a pleasing lie for a while.

Dear Mystery Poet, (--wink--)
This is a great submission for this contest. It meets all the requirements, as far as I can see, and offers us an inside look at the pain each of us has had to experience at some time in life. Beautifully done. The whole presentation looks great! Good luck!

Comment from Bonjour Patita
Such a sterling example of the requested poetic format!
Each line builds upon the last, and the presentation with color really helped to set off the words.
Great job and Good luck in the contest,

Comment from Holly Buss
This reminds me of a scene in Julius Caesar where Brutus was telling the conspirators to hide their plan in smiles. To wear a mask saying things are all normal, when they really aren't. This poem is amazing in how it captures the feelings of how it feels to constantly wear a mask, and the way it can affect others. Thanks for sharing this amazing poem. Have a blessed day!

I went through my own masks before, so I understand what you must?ve went through on some level. I connected with this poem, and I thank you for sharing it.
Comment from Neonewman
They always say "put on your best face" quite difficult to hide some of our woes. Keeping it inside sometimes hurts us more. Thank you for sharing.
God bless

Your skilful poem shows how make up can be used to camouflage the damage done by hurt and deceitful friends, and also the glamorous disguise is used to portray the artificiality of stardom.

Comment from Dolly'sPoems
So true and we all at times wear this fake facade and hide behind our make-up! Tears you cannot see, but the hurt is still there, good luck with the contest, love Dolly x

Deception will always confuse, ask, and most definitely destroy, until they have come across their own kind and the pain is payed forward many times over, very well written with beautiful artwork, very well presented short poem, best wishes for your contest****kahpot
