"Strings of Fate"

Are our lives our own...?

Strings of fate...

or strings of chance.

To sip the wine

that makes them dance.

Sometimes it seems

we're led astray.

Strings of chance

make puppets play.

Strings, no that is something on it's own. When we of ink of Puppets or Politicians, do we not see the strings. I enjoyed the layers of this.

[Night]

We certainly see the strings indeed...but I think we almost always choose to deny the origin. Thanks for the review my friend.
