~ Puppet Psychosis

 

 

Inscrutable cans

Hidden in those thoughts

A dream alive

An illusion of reality

Nor obscured by the mind

The living walk by the

Spirit in full consciousness

Trapped by defects

Tired by thoughts

Together a whole

In the power of the senses

Each uniquely interwoven

To a whole universal touch

The puppets dance schizophrenic

On the canvas of the mind

Each one with its own

Dance, to the last gasp

Wake up, wake up

And realize that you had shared a

Quartered, of your time

At your own waking dream

The title for this one really grabbed my attention! I was looking forward to dive into this one, and I wasn't dissapointed !!! Puppets as inanimated objects, puppets as children toys, puppets as hopeless human beings, going through the routine, having their strings pulled by an unseen presence... "The puppets dance schizophrenic" There is such power and rythym in your words, they scream to be repeated and to be taken far across the land! Your style is quite unique, halfway between reality (the heart) and dreamland (the imagination). "At your own waking dream" indeed... Another fascinating read, thank you for sharing!

Oh JP now thank you for this insights... And compliment, this was a real write, I observed the behavior of someone near to me for over a year... Your take brings me on new ideas already :) thankies

Great description of the senses off kilter, the flow was shattered brilliance, you have done your muse proud...most artist need a slight bit of the crazies to get the gears rolling...ask Vincent Willem van Gogh ear and Dali curly mustache inanimate subjection.. great piece

Yes, he cut his ear off, syfilis, and craziness... a real artist, yes, in head? or out of the toxic of oil painting? still interesting. :) Lovely you know that, and come up with it. Thank you so much dear friend. Always good to ponder with you.

[writing mojo]

there is fine line between genius and insanity..all those poets and artist who inspire have the tight rope burns to prove such a point..

That is exactly true, I think....

[Priscilla Sayers]

Very well descriptive piece of the inner workings of the struggle that plagues the schitzophrenic mind. Tortured, a mind puppet to the other minds that live within, sharing extremely limited space. Encountering so much loss of time. Well written love!

Thank you so much dear, for understanding this one.... it is about the one, I told you about... ;) thank god there is help now. Your words are intelligent, and profound, I didn't expected otherwise love you sis xx

[Priscilla Sayers]

Love you:)

Thank you Krithika :)

There are no mental health facilities in Detroit. They have all been closed by a cash-strapped govenment and renamed as prisons. Consequently, the pathology of the
desease of schizophrenia, the essential nature of it, is criminalized and made a
problem of sociatal illegality and not a mental health condition. Sad.

You have wrapped this malady around your delicate, poetic sentiment but that
EL is what your so good at, and now, what we expect of you; to be delicate
and sentimental. I love your choice of title. Puppet (anything) gets my
attention.

Your amazing, dana

You're amazing too dana, I do love your writes, answers, and reviews... they reach always further into a deep meaning, and in my core. That is sad to see and hear in Detroit it became that way... I'm glad you explain me this. I want to learn as much as I can from each and every person and place always. Thank you for sharing thoughts with me, and on this write sweetheart. I will come back for you... xx

This was very powerful dear Elisa. To be lost within your mind, a puppet dancing schizophrenic, imagery that unveils yet clouds... Stuck in this trap that is your own minds prison of altered reality... My heart is with you dear, In your loved ones' struggles.
Your sister, Horizon

Thank you so much sweet sister, for all, and also your two sweet letters, they mean so much to me, I will be soon back, fully, and be there for you and your wonderful words and art. Thank you for your heartfelt words, they mean much to me. xxx

: ) lol I actually didn't understand this poem. How cool!! I had ideas and blueprints of Schizophrenia on my mind, reading this, but I am at a loss and STILL enjoy the wordplay you apply so fancy-free to paint these dramatic scenes of scents and emotion!! xoxo -Your Mark

That is ok Mark, I didn't expect actually anybody to understand this piece, it is a hard and difficult subject... Though I do appreciate your words time and positivism, thanks :)

I've witnessed this mental illness and, um, it is tough to see...I remember pleading with his dad to seek help for my cousin after I seen him homeless, not bathed, not shavened, hair grown long...picking cigarette butts from a trash can...he had that thousand yard stare...it was really scary...I'm just glad he's in a facility where they can treat him. He was a straight A student too, just ran with the wrong crowd.

I love this write...very Deep and emotional...it shows you care, but at the same time wondering how can you care for someone who is tail spinning from something within that is not in her control. Nicely done, Elisa.

Thank you so much dear Ev, for getting on point, and share thoughts about this disease... this mental illness... it is great to finally talk with one who understands. And the examples you come with, are exactly the behaviour.
Thanks for feeling this one with me. Yes, it's devistating to see one like this, and all help is out of your hands.... Thanks again, amazing one! - Eli

[Everett DeValle]

You are very welcome, Eli.

I understand it. It's mind-twistingy brilliant, of course, and creatively ingenious. You've written it almost as if you;re going through it yourself. The mind is very strange and strong, intriguingly mysterious. Sometimes I get lost in there for hours it seems...I hope your dear someone doesn't get too lost through it and is able to find their way back. This is a beautiful piece, thank you.

Thank you very much dear, love your comment
