Description: We Wear The Mask - this powerful poetry is written by Paul Laurence Dunbar. These words will always be a monumental revolution in the history of mankind and poetry. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- We Wear the Mask BY PAUL LAURENCE DUNBAR We wear the mask that grins and lies, It hides our cheeks and shades our eyes,— This debt we pay to human guile; With torn and bleeding hearts we smile, And mouth with myriad subtleties. Why should the world be over-wise, In counting all our tears and sighs? Nay, let them only see us, while We wear the mask. We smile, but, O great Christ, our cries To thee from tortured souls arise. We sing, but oh the clay is vile Beneath our feet, and long the mile; But let the world dream otherwise, We wear the mask! ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- For the first time, we present you with this inspirational writing in motion.
