Evil Puppet

by a broken smile with a broken heart is a poets life   Oct 10, 2008


Sitting on a cabinet
Watching every one
Memorizing them
One by one

His teal eyes
Are reflected by the moonlight
The mischievous grin
Makes him seem sinister

Lurking in the shadows
This evil puppet waits
For the right chance to strike

His master takes him down
For another show
Another laugh the audience will have
He'll be at his master's command
But not for too long

The audience is leaving now
He waits in his place
With his mind he takes control of his master
He slowly laughs
"Who's pulling the strings now?"

The master makes his way through the crowd
Locking the doors so no one gets out
One by one each of those who pointed and laughed
Will die

The master grabs a gun and a shiny knife
Shoots every one
A bullet in their head
A bullet in their heart
Blood splattered all over the walls

An evil laugh breaks through the silent night
The puppet sitting on his place
Enjoys the sight
His master has created at his command.
"Who's the one enjoying now?"

Each victim has a puppet mouth
in their bloody face.
"Who's the puppet now?"

    That was a scary poem and I loved it. That was one of the best poems i have ever read. The flow was really great and the imagery was good as well. This was a really good poem. Good Job.

    Lies Leave Your Lips and Evil Puppet

    Again, I decided to read the entire poem before I started commenting.

    The story overall was a little confusing. I think I understand the meaning of the poem, but it just didnt seem to flow very well as a story. I thought it skipped too much between stanza's 4 and 5. In stanza 4, they are preparing for the show, then suddenly, in stanza 5, it was over. I think you should drop a stanza or two about the show itself. It would help the story line.

    In stanza 7, the first line mentions a gun and a knife, but no further mention was made of the knife. Unless he used it to carve a puppet mouth on everyone (which i really didnt understand), i think it was overlooked.

    I like the actual meaning of the poem and the imagery is good for the most part, but I was lost in a few places and kind of lost the scene. I think a little more material would help out.

    I would rate it a 3/5, but I didnt leave a rating. I didnt want to drag down your votes.

    A decent poem in the big picture.

    I love this poem. When I read this poem I was envisioning a little boy or girl who was being bullied by the bigger kids. You hear about this stories where one day the quiet child takes over and kills all those who laughed at his misfortune. I don't think this is what you were trying to get at but regardless it was very well done.
    5/5
