    Powerful poems, Gillena. Masks themselves will feel different for a long time. And the idea of "smudged silence sob" catches in my throat.

    So tragic, sad that people are going to suffer because of a man’s ego … well done, Gillena.

    Gillena, there is nothing more to be said about then matter than what is in your poem. I also think your musical selection is perfect.
