Long Puppetry Poems

1
Though still within our infancy, 
we strive to thrive, but woefully 
we flash and flaunt our 'primacy',
display our trophies pridefully.
 
Our terra firma ecstasy
destroys survival's harmony,
lays waste to life on land and sea.
Mankind, thy name...

On a Los Angeles street - play it brother, ladle it on black delirium
         A wind blows – from trumpets, oboes, and saxophones

Ten hut!
Can't let up
Even though, it can get messed up
Really F'd up
Do not get fed up
Keep your head up
Stay sharp, don't get set up
Careful where a disagreement ends up
Heads up!
Many fast to wet up
From the...

Reclaim our Destiny

(Verse 1)
Yo, it's a struggle just to survive this life,
Cost of living rising, but wages don't suffice.
Living off government funds, barely getting by,
Can't afford the rent, it's sky-high, oh my!

Real estate leeches playing...

No
Don't blow up my phone
With nonsense
Such hateful comments
So quick to take things out of context

On a nightly basis, I smoke and drink until I am unconscious
While close and far from flying objects
In a world full...

My children
how the world changes
and all that we once dreamed of
becomes a conciliatory compromise
I and you 
in time we find
to walk amongst their ruins
in sad memories of those things to which
we were inspired

I had hoped...

A bit colossal
It's awful
Inside still hollow
Painting pictures like Picasso
Going against or the rest will follow
Many that are ill and wallow
F a pill bottle
The same can be said for those that kill swallows
There's no need to...

~Marionette Master~    

All my dreams evolve around my wooden floor
Candles and clowns the show must go on

The Moon slowly moves its way into my room
Dust pushes through my window making shadow puppets...

Always they scheme
And obsess over memes

Opportunity is there and then it melts like ice cream
I haven't been getting closer to my dreams

Crossed many streams
Climbed a mountain top so I could scream
As well as let off...

It's been tough and humbling
Just the truth, not a dark picture that I'm coloring
People coming up to me
With a look that is puzzling
Telling me how my words have been troubling
I said, "Do you have any...

There are men that say united as we stand 
But I fail to see a united land 
They should have said dead on your feet 
So as my knees give out 
My mind races about...

Silently waiting amidst the full moon's sink'd smile,
Farfetch’d upon the grazing winds of steeping mountains,
Seemingly dead eyes, tear’d and wash’d and wash’d,
Flow of glaciers and broken crevasse - a sacred fig, lost?
No. yellow clouds; damn’d...

This hotel is familiar, I think I’ve crashed here before
I smell the stench of the ones who’ve smashed here
Limited to closed curtains and a locked door
So the guilt doesn’t leave the room
And sway into the...

“ You know; you look like someone else ”
Was the first thing she said
I never did ask, just who, I reminded her of

Say romance fornicated in the guttering of a candle
And its flame lay in...

The voice of people should be their own

They should be unique and individual, 

Or else we become puppets of ventriloquists

Using words that merely posit, 

Their views, their dreams

Their aims and desires, 

Forging re-enactments of their...

Understanding Us like Us



The failing pendulum
Prevents the gravity of its swing

Momentum

Weighted to the stretching hours
The loneliness pounds 

But the smile ever ready
Turns its puppetry of normality
And jerks the strings
In the corners of eyes
To pupil vacancy...

My solitude weaves the paths of the night that unfolds beneath my footsteps,
And when my eyelashes fall heavy - a puppetry of worlds dims in their blindness.
In the frown of my eyebrows,
The Moon transforms into...

When you are Free


Do you know yourself

Can you see inside the painted walls
Quick constructed plasterboards
The disguises you find
In a puppetry of events 
Later on
When you are being 
Without thought

And it will be in that easy...

The dampness exemplifies the credence unspoken and unnamed

whilst dripping and sweating unmasked the pain

And all the while her body lay there weeping

his watchful eye and her pussy cat lay there sleeping 

Deep, deep in the...

THE PUPPET GAME I PLAY

When you are imbued with the uncanny ability
Wherein you can see beyond the shout of hosanna
To the dormant volcano 
Of agitation, smouldering "crucify him" 
Yet lurking within the inner recess of...

In convolution's  twist the puppets dangle
And by intellectual snobbery
Confound themselves in obscure philosophies
Within this miasma of strings
Bring thier selfrighteousness to weigh
 And heavily obey the populace

Puppets mouth the marionette of speach
Chatter with placatory promises...

Here I am: a product of coffee shop
    bricks and apparition footsteps-freakishly
    paradoxical, hungrily swallowing placebos 
    disguised as Penicillin.
I harbor words deep into my hingeless...

(To American Protesters)

Let them go on with puppetry and think our life is a game
Or a gambling scene where they win at the cost of our dear name,
Just to heap wealth or fix their steps...

A fleeting lapse of confidence before this masquerade
Replays it's ugly monotonous sound, just like yesterday
The sting upon my tear-stained cheek I feel is the last straw
I watch my trembling hand reach out and open up...
