Store-bought printed material    

From French

As a noun:
Disguising of military works to deceive the enemy.

As a transitive verb:
To conceal or hide changing appearances.

As an intransitive verb:
To practice camouflage.

Worn by military, worn by sportsmen in “official” capacities.

A very popular print found in hats, pants, shirts, jackets, jeans and t-shirts. It’s quite fashionable. It comes in all sizes for men, women and children, even toddlers.

It’s often worn by politicians at press conferences when visiting war zones. Words sound like camouflage too.

We’re even getting used to it almost everywhere…in war areas by solders but rarely by civilians. I see it too, in peaceful places like parks and on the street.

I wrap these trees beside a little trail to change or hide the realities we absolutely understand and know. The landscape changes. But, we know it’s there…just altered like the many things we see and hear everyday.
