Comparing Wear The Mask And Glass Revealing
In the two poems We Wear the Mask by Paul Laurence Dunbar and Glass Ceiling by T.R. Hummer they have a common theme about how people often shield themselves and others from reality for social reasons. People do this is many different ways. In our society we can't tell when people are shielding their true feelings because they are wearing a mask so to speak.
In the poem We Wear the Mask the author talks about how wearing a mask changes the way people see you and how it covers up your true emotions. Most of the people hide themselves because they don't want people to see what they are truly feeling. In the poem he says, "We wear a mask that grins and lies, it hides our cheeks and shades our eyes" this quote shows how a mask can completely cover
