Coming Out (closets, conventions, customs, cultures...) by Covering Up,

         Coming Out by Covering Up
 
     
 
I wore a dunce cap into class years ago when the reading
assignment was Hawthorne’s “The Minister’s Black Veil.”
and no one mentioned it, brought it up: Huh? What’s with
the dunce cap Sam?  You trying to prove something?.”
 
Not a peep.  Me sitting in front of them the whole period
with a cone on my head trying to get discussion about the
Minister’s Black Veil. 
 
         Covering Up in order to Come Out.
               Apologetic: Apocalyptic
                 When the veil comes
                           off
             Or when you see it go on 
                       Revelation
                     C
Let “c” stand for cave, closet, culture, custom, convention,
convenience, context  (box, bubble, behind bars)
 
     .        
 
If I sat here behind bars would you Get IT?  Put a veil over
my face  or wore monumental  dark sunglasses & .dunce cap
on my head…would you Get IT?  The Joke?
 
            HA!  a ha.  Ahhh.    I get it.
                A small apocalypse
                     unveiling
        uncovering of what was covered.
          by covering IT up…. get it?
 
Apology:  words for opening (apo) An apology: literally  the words
that accompany an exposure, disclosure, revelation just like Mythos
say the Words that accompany Ritual, an action of accommodation.
 
My classes are a JOKE. 
I apologize.
Get it or Not: who loves a
punch line if it’s got to be
explained?
 
nevermind.
