Nice interpretation. But as as social being and a democrat, one has to maintain a fine balance. A very thought provoking poem indeed. Thanks & Congrats.

I like this, though I tend to believe that the first face and the fourth face are the same face. But let's face it: the fact is that you have a very nice poem here. Thanks for posting and congrats on poem of the day!

Congratulations being chosen as Member Poem Of The Day, Ismim! True oriental input, the true face be kept away from public.A dashing idea, yours....with that social media.. Mind the grammar, please: As it does not belongs to any...The form TO DO does not need an S. It is As it does not belong to any OR....As it belongs to any....the choice is yours. Despite this grammar mistake, it is an interesting poem for sure. A 10 for the vote.
