PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

bottomless puppet
that can't be missed
reflecting
always ever reflecting
looking for the self
in the bitterness of the mist
star struck sabers
bequeath her no peace
counter intuitive butchers
wearing the mask of givers
as they pilfer piece after piece
voraciously they feed
off her every insecurity
all puppets themselves
blindly seeking
their own 'Marionette'
to destroy
shadow dancers
draped in flesh
wildly traipsing
just trying to live
through the strings
never realizing
fire is their toy...........
