wear the mask

Wear the mask refer to hiding true self behind a mask. Poet Paul Laurence Dunbar wrote the literary renowned poem "We Wear the Mask" that has been the subject of various literary criticisms over the years. Because of the poem’s indirectness and generalized ambiguity, the interpretation of the “we” that wears the “mask” and why they do so is left unanimously undisclosed. Some argue that the subject is the black while others argue that the subject is all mankind. No matter who was Dunbar's subject, it's agreed that wear the mask describes to hide behind a “mask” that conceals our true emotions and selves.

Paul Laurence Dunbar
For both of us, serenity has been an unfulfilled task.
Overwhelming pain and sorrow filled our brittle cask.
To disguise my pain and sorrow, I too wear the mask.

Thou Needn’t Wear a Mask

When a head of state is against the use of masks in public in response to widespread violent protests in their land, so that the police could identify and arrest the rioters; or in case any public mask hoarding could deprive hospitals of them—either situation contradicts public health measures in a pandemic.

During the coronavirus crisis, the implicit “Thou needn’t wear a mask” message only raises panic in the population that there aren’t enough masks available for everyone.

Why Should I Wear a Mask?

The question anti-maskers worldwide have been asking themselves, because in their minds, Covid or not, they won’t die, as their Creator is the One who determines their number of days on earth, although corporate prayers from righteous men and women could prolong their stay a little bit longer.

“Why should I wear a mask?” and “Why should I be jabbed?” might outwardly appear to be selfish questions, but spiritually or philosophically speaking, they are nontrivial questions that politicians and religious leaders often try to shun away from.

Wearing the Crimson Mask

This is a "mask" that a person wears when they have been thoroughly beaten to the point where there whole face is covered in blood.

In Rocky 4, Apollo Creed was wearing the crimson mask before he died.
