My Puppet

Inside a bottle I reside.
And some would say in there I hide.
I dwell within this phantoms plight
And live a life within this light.

It pleases me no end to be.
To sail upon this vital sea
To be the kings in kingdoms come.
To be the sward and not the plum

I revel in the freedom of.
The hero in the game of love
I am the knight upon the quest.
And always stand above the rest.

Would this not elate you too?
To be the best at all you do.
There is no payment for the bail.
You conjure up a ship and sail.

And though it reads a nitric gas.
I love this bottle and its glass.

Oh my poet prophet ... a plum you could never be ...

A bottled puppet...you've got to adore the imagery...and the fact that your rapier wit leaves us full plums for breakfast!  Always always a breath of fresh air....

good morning, Sy!

Well, not sure what to say, but I like how you closed this one...bringing us back to the glass in such a simplisticly clever way.

Whether on the shoal or on the shore,
I'll seek the lighthouse evermore.

Hi Seymour  

I guess the devil made me say it, too, then. LOL
I thought the same thing.  

I really do like your "puppet in a bottle"
inspiration, friend.
