Breaking things
I can't repair
Making objects
Out of thoughts
Making more than
By thinking not
Eating food
And drinking wine
A body that
I thought was mine
Dressed as Arab
Dressed as Jew
O mask of iron
I was there for you
Moods of glory
Moods so foul
The  Man in the Iron Mask  was an unidentified prisoner in the Bastille. Arab and Jew being masquerades, the mask of iron seems to be the most honest way of not showing oneself and thus escaping classification.
There for You
