CAMOUFLAGE

Ella Wheeler Wilcox

Camouflage is all the rage. Ladies in their fight with age - Soldiers in their fight with foes - Demagogues who mask and pose

In the guise of statesmen — girls Black of eyes with golden curls - Politicians, votes in mind, Smiling, affable and kind,

All use camouflage to-day. As you go upon your way, Walk with caution, move with care; Camouflage is everywhere!
