Floating like a white ghost in a black crowd
In his mouth a red balloon with white spots
An hallucinated magician with a poisonous shroom
The Masquerade is a kaleidoscope of illusions
They are apparitions that belong to hallucination
A photograph may record or distort the instant
Maybe it is just some kind of surreal reality
