The Art of Exile


This is the story of a man
Living in a city of masks
Where everyone puts one on
And rarely takes it off
Such is the culture of this city
The man also conforms
But inside of him beats a rebel's heart
And so he dares
To imagine the city without masks
And he sketches faces in his spare time
Some smile, others frown
And society treats him as an outcast
They find his ideas a threat
And shun him
But still he draws
And draws

'The Bilge Master
