Best Mannequin Poems
The Waltz of the MannequinA Fantasy
There was I, forgotten in the attic.
Mannequin discarded, ready for demolition.
Cracks everywhere with some rags thrown on
Haphazardly over me like a scarecrow.
Suddenly all lights went out, an outage.
Immediately the generators went off but failed.
In the attic, the air went into a trembling atmosphere
Thunder boomed...

The Mannequin ChallengeDecisions, decisions, and consequences of balance,
deciphering the outcomes can leave you paused like the mannequin challenge.
One brain, one mind, and influential abilities,
mathematics can be the catalyst to spiritual connectivities.
If you completely overstand this world, then you are frustrated by malice,
deciphering the outcomes can leave...

Crippled MannequinNo blank page to scribe
No empty spaces to scream
Should I down on knee?
Too much to be seen
Exhibition life had shown
Privacy in threat
Fortitude concealed
Scratching behind walls of heart
Endurance break down
Love deep, better not
Sacrifice all, better not
Your life, your option...

God's MannequinGod's Mannequin
God's female mannequin stood proud and tall in the window,
Elevated with fashions beautiful and elegant.
Gazed at the scenery the trees majestic and tall,
Protected from the thunderstorms and lightening.
The night sky cleared and the clouds an apparition of darkness,
Sunlight shone brightly in the distance.
The opposite...

Looking Past the MannequinWe want to instantly harvest the fruits of our aspirations
But cant stand perspiration
Planting seeds steadily that form no roots lack of dedication
Easily led to frustration
Afraid that we may stumble so we drive
Where we should walk
Our tongues sometimes to humble like unalive
When we should talk
We see...

Skin Deep: Mannequin Series 7I slip your lies into my skin,
beauty plastic and skin deep
watched by those eyes again
tonight there will be no sleep.
And there's frost on the window,
too cold to remember if I feel
white to blue falling so low
what's it mean to be real?
There is more to this...

I Was Your Marionette: Mannequin Series 5I am but a marionette,
my cross is in your hands
move my strings slightly to watch
me waltz to your commands.
I am but a mannequin,
I hide behind plastic smiles
watch me close but never see
I act fine in my trials.
I am but hollow glass,
you will never again see...

My Secret Mannequin20/8/2009
In my cupboard life
creeps
a living mannequin
The deception:
no acceptance
and tepid;
a biological kind
Gaia prevails
while I fall
into disarray
Bid thee-
make me whole
Whisperin winds
by my bed declare:
"Always pay
the price
today"
Grandeur on stiletto
Tis' the blade,
not the shoe
that offers escape
Yet,
preference falls to-
the leathery hide
Luscious lips,
a glint in the eye,
renewed bust;
the goddess Aphrodite
Scalpel and...

Requiem For the Mannequin: Mannequin Series 6You love skin
that cannot feel
a mannequin
she isn't real.
She ripped herself open
to find what was beneath her
maybe a heart she was hopin’
but, she is a plastic little girl
she'll never feel
her skin's plastic
she doesn't heal,
even if it’s drastic.
She cut skin away for you
maybe then love would mean...

Mannequin Man:It would be great to be a mannequin,
For they never put on weight,
But for me, it's too late.

The Mischievous MannequinIn the lingerie dept. stiff as a board,
a man came up and ogled and explored,
struck another pose,
right in the nose,
man passing flat out on the floor.

'window Dressing (Or) Mannequin LessonsShe had Velvet eyes, Satin lips
Silk skin … Seamless hips
Threaded her way into his heart
and Stitched his mind up Tight
But the Needle Point, was coming
Pricking… with all its might! …
… Posed her Textile-smile
Watched Fabric – flow
All the Lycra-while
Sticking Velcro …
and Ribbons and Bow
… he didn’t...

Frozen MannequinFrozen mannequin,
Stiff jointed,
And empty eyed,
Walk, dance, move,
Discarded in January's river,
Sodden with cold,
A deadly embrace,
From the phantom within,
Pained lips and eyes,
Wild hair sticking out,
Chipped polish,
The clumsy dancer,
Lost emotions,
Drug down,
Swimming without the drugs,
Flowing only,
Floating,
Where is your cure,
Little doll,
Where is the light?...
