Puppet

Puppet

A Poem by CrystalBluePersuasion

Papa, I'm your puppet
I'm your puppet, Papa
You're the puppet master
Tug this string and I'll blame her
Pull this one and she will be hated

Just like you said
She's no good

Papa I'm your dummy
I'm your dummy, Papa
You're the ventriloquist
Tug this pulley and my mouth will move
Speaking of her wrong doings
Throw your voice and I'll spew words
of disgust for her

Just like you said
She's no good

Papa, I'm your pawn
I'm your pawn, Papa
You're the strategist
Move me forward and I'll discard her love
Slide me to the side and I'll ignore her pleas

Just like you said
She's no good

Papa, I'm your trumpet
I'm your trumpet, Papa
You're the bugler
Just like Reveille, call out her flaws
Announce them to the world
As if to beckon her mockery by the multitudes

Pull my strings with your contempt
Move my mouth with your lies
Use me as your pawn in this 
Game of Blame
Play me as an instrument in your
Symphony of Disdain

Papa, I'm your puppet
I'm your puppet, Papa
