Halloween Seems Illogical

Well, after all, we costume ourselves each day
Cloaking the little hurts and little pains
Those disabling vulnerabilities of
The casual abrasiveness of life

Playing dress-up in courtesy and smiles
Just as we should, in disciplining ourselves
To selfless service to humanity
Hoping somehow to make the costume real

For after all, we make ourselves each day
Less obvious pilgrims along the sacred way
