Time to Take off the Mask
Please take a moment to listen to these lyrics
lets take it back to when maltreatment was daily routined
human guile was vast and retaliation was concealed
we were lynched and beat
at the end of the day it was time to lament
but then with a myriad of supporters
liberation was near
its time to doff our masks
let us disband their antipathy
the facade is no longer needed
we can be who we want to be
Sylvia Eilenberg, Regina Branche, Boey Tan

I liked very much. The poem seemed more cheerful then some of the others.

I liked how in this part you acknowledged the fact that with the "mask" removed they could be different and perhaps even better people.
