~ 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

Author's Note

~ This one may be interpret wrongly or may be understand not so well, but to explain ourselves one time to be imagined in the world of psychosis, as someone very dear to me struggles with this... it will fit for you hopefully....



Thank you xx

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

We can only imagine the turmoil one must go through ...your visual is right on...

The living walk by the
Spirit in full consciousness

nice work Elisa...

Thank you so much my friend, the turnmoil this person suffers with is, splitted into 4. And it's interesting how they switch into other personalities each time, She's a living, fortunately, she's still, I pray every day, to have her with me for forever. She's a walking dream alive, and not sleep-dreaming, but awareness-dreaming, :) thank you art

[Art Sun]

well I hope she is with you for a long time...

Hope that too :)

This is a deep, intriguing write which perfectly describes the layers of our inner self. I think we all suffer from different milder versions o psychosis- any creative mind can have experiences of living in a world that is detached from the external.
Coming back to the poem - this is not only a carefully penned down poem, but at the same time it portrays in an intricate fashion the numerous integrating and disintegrating canvases of the psychological being and the turmoil that plays onto them. A powerful, profound write Emily. Going to my Favorites :)

Thank you very much for seeing all this, dear Aaran, and for your well spelled words and insights, on this subject and also to let hear your opinion, I truly appreciate this. :)

[Pratik]

You are welcome dear :)

This is a very good write. Im not sure I'm smart enought o comprehend it because its meaning aludes me. Id love it if you enlighten me in simple terms common enough for me to understand :P

Thank you dear one, it is very hard to understand this one, I guess, you can find much of explanation in my other comments, below. If you still have questions, mail me, so I can specific explain what I meant on which part you didn't understood xx

Your poem is quite mystical and mysterious... you really captured how hard it is for us to understand those with certain mental eccentricities... I have a sister with a chemical imbalance... coarse when we were young we thought she was just a drama queen, then understood her actions when she was diagnosed later in life.

Yes, dear Dale, if you're not familiar with it, it is indeed so difficult to understand, emphatize, feel, re-feel, let it in.... but same way so intersting how each new, or other brain works, with each different diagnose. It always captivated my mind, why people can get into this, from one moment to another, and that elusive thing for the outsiders, should be studied more, even as Corset says, instead off putting one into a mental institution, full with medication, (shock therapy in the beginning of this century, stupid/rediculous) I want to make it clear, we should love, all who have something "that is diffrent from our own oh so safe world" :) xx

My Father was always a kind, thoughtful, and very deep thinking man. He has Dementia now and has attacked people with a coat hanger, and made lewd suggestions to nurses (my father is a deeply religious catholic). The mind is just another organ which is scary as hell considering who we are, comes from there somewhere. Good write, made me think.

Thank you very much Mark, nice to share thoughts, on this oh so taboo subject, but it is all within us... you see. And the person I wrote this about stands very near to me in real life... This was about a Psychosis, with Schizophrenia, but Alzhimer, or Dementia can be very Paranoid too, as it is hard to leave all assumptions, while you can't remember some, and agressive facts, indeed can play then a way to make them feel comfy. Thanks Mark.

A nice dark piece looking into the messed up minds of the real world. Can anyone genuinely say their mind is pure? There must be something slightly wrong with everyone - which is what I felt the line 'each with it's own dance' said to me :) An interesting one, certainly. Always pleasant to read psychologically tinted poetry. :)

Aaaaah thank you dear writer, for this! I was waiting on the one, who nailed it :) Everyone is perfectly imperfect, and I love the wicked ones, as the normal ones... that was my intention of this write. xx

I love the inner ticking of the psych, I think science and pharmaceutics try to stuff what they can not pin onto stick boards into a bottle, there is so much phenomena going on today, that if one tried to speak about it the first reaction a person listening would have... would be to call the white coats, so they can label them and drug them...and put them somewhere "safe" away from the herds that wear blinders and that don't ask questions. " the normal ones" . It just makes me wonder how many "gifted" people that are psychics or mediums that "see"; the future and have visions and conversations with what or will happen in the future; have been misdiagnosed and thrown into pill bottles or worse ...cells.
I wish we could clone you and send you out into the world :)

Aw thank you dear one for your heartfelt and honest review, it is so true. Oh my, I know about it all what you say, x sometimes it can make you very disappointedand angry the same time... Thanks for your words.

was a blessing, freeing her mind from all that torment. love this write
