A drum roll instills over his crowd a hushed silence
He is ready now to start his make believe violence

A flick of the wrists a twist of a string
The puppet master his act now doth begin

He smiles as he manipulates his lifeless dolls
Making them seem real giving them pointless goals

He guides their actions with deceit and guile
His audience like his dolls manipulated all the while

Not seeing he dominates them he controls them
A twist of a string they must obey his every whim

His spell now weaved the audience now entranced
The show now ends the puppets dance now danced

The audience are now his puppets, he has full control
He smiles at these new additions, his puppets with a soul

He dismisses his new puppets with a subtle smile
To act out his new play, ignorant all the while

Living lives full of deceit and confusion,
It is them now, who are the final illusion...

you watched me bleed you watched me die you watched me not even a bat of your eye

Wow god does seem to control people's life its sad really because sometimes I think when God has children one of them becomes god untill a new child is born, and sometimes you get gods like me when I'm playing Sims they want most to be happy but their are some they don't like that they distory the life of them. The really sad part is when they want every one to suffer.

Dark,
What does that mean?
Light,
What makes you so good?
Sin,
What is my Sin?
Only when you answer the first two will
you find the last.

    "A Planet of playthings,
we dance on the strings
of powers we cannot perceive;
    The stars aren't align
or the gods are malign -
Blame is better to give than to receive."
   -- Neil Pert

    The theme of this poem put me in the mind of a song.
