Puppetted..

by janiL   Aug 19, 2007


We wander blindly
walking
ensnarled by confusion,
knowledge furthers ambiguity
reality materialize illusions..

we are all his
following
adhering to his every whim,
engaged in foolish duties
hollow emptiness within..

his shadow befalls
unnerving
no trace marks its wicked pang,
drawn to such insidious trap
lured by jargons of twisted tongue..

devoured by power
encompasing
all our actions binded,
rules still over our emotions
all decisions be demented..

chaos shrouds the mind
confounding
hiding the master of our strings,
we move oblivious to his power
we are puppets to this unwanted king..

    Wow, you should write a few more dark poems, cause you do it greatly. Another one with vivid imagery. The wording in this one is superb, and whole piece is so effective and captivating.
    I like its structure and the flow is excellent.
    My favorite stanza is:

    -his shadow befalls
    unnerving
    no trace marks its wicked pang,
    drawn to such insidious trap
    lured by jargons of twisted tongue..-

    5/5 from me
