This makes me wonder - whose perspective is the mad (insane) one, and who is the judge? Very complex in few words, Mark~

This one takes some thought, and I'm still thinking. Woe the dupe who pulls his own strings...THAT is madness.

So much your poem says in just a few words--much depth in the second and third line. All the best, Mark.
