Puppeteer Extraordinaire A puppeteer extraordinaire. Manipulating strings of share An arrogance in willful wage Turns my head and bends' my back, A dancing puppet on a rack. Capricious is her playful gage. Unbeknown I side with her. This upside down utopia. No need the puppet on a stage. She pulls the strings skillfully Almost always convincing me. No matter what the outrage still I cannot understand her zeal Or the unction of her anneal. |

Beautifully written, Sy....and in answer to Floria, I disagree...not everyone gets their strings pulled.....I don't...but I try to be the one who is pulling the strings of others. copyright2001 Lyra Nesius |

My strings were pulled by others, dear who did not allow me my morning cheer I saw in wonder with near dismay this which almost...got away! [Almost, but not quite!] |

Sy, I volunteered to be a puppet once, But the tension was not right. It hurt so bad I cut the strings, And that's when I took flight! [This message has been edited by Larry C (01-11-2002 12:52 AM).] |

Sy, you are a puppeteer, pulling our strings with extraordinary flair, whether far or near making us dance in the write of your air Keth. Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind. Unknown |
