Identity Crisis
When an undercover police officer in Omaha, Nebraska, appeared in court
wearing a gorilla mask to conceal his identity while testifying in a
narcotics case, police officials ordered him to switch to a pillowcase
disguise to preserve "an aura of professionalism."

therese (Therese):
Why are these women here dancing on their own?
Why is there this sadness in their eyes?
Why are the soldiers here
Their faces fixed like stone?
I can't see what it is that they despise
They're dancing with the missing
They're dancing with the dead
They dance with the invisible ones
Their anguish is unsaid
They're dancing with their fathers
They're dancing with their sons
They're dancing with their husbands
They dance alone. They dance alone.
