((In advance, I apologize for the shortness and form lacking style of this poem. I wrote it with very little time on my hands when I was bored.))

Stringless puppet, don't be sad
The day is bright and new
Stringless puppet, it's not that bad
I'll sew your strings anew

Stringless puppet, smile so sweet
Evening's far from gone
Stringless puppet, torn and beat
I'll sew your strings anew

Stringless puppet, resting still
The season is now right
Stringless puppet, tears so real
I'll sew your strings anew

Stringless puppet, pulled aside
Your arms and legs hang limp
Stringless puppet, smiling wide
I'll sew your strings anew

Stringless puppet, pale face gleaming
The morn is almost come
Stringless puppet, happy seeming
I've sewed your strings anew...

It's been a long time since I've been in here, Soul.  I'll have to look up some more of your work if this is what you accomplish with "little time on your hands."  Well done.

soul sepulchre,
little time on your hands huh?
with this poem you have accomplished with a "little time" what i can't do in a day. i love this poem, it has this dark quality but,a amazing amount of hope the i didn't expect.

thanx for sharing.
