The Puppet's Poem
It was
Time for the puppet show and the audience gathered
Straighten
the chord and let him dance on the brim of the glass
Watch
him stumble as the sure footed thoughts slip on the wine drip
An
adagio? Why? When the major turns into a minor and the beauty falls asleep
Let him
drown in the Wine for the truth stands tall and mighty
And the
audience wearing laughter, mocking.
What
could have been an act in the Major rewritten in the minor
But who
says the minors are dark? Paint it in red, sparkling red said I
Eyes
once shut will open to the true music composed in the minors
Piercing
the puppet heart. Who cares, for even the broken heart could be played with
All that the
puppeteer needs is a chord and the audience,
Start
over again, dance, jump and skip for the Night is getting old.
Oh my
little heart, wish you were deaf! Wish you were blind!
Wish
you had never known what the music in the minor sounds like
The
bottles of wine can never wash away the painting she has made
A
miasma is all that will be left, lingering around the puppet's heart
While
the audience sip the glittering White and the sparkling Red.
Let the
puppet dance to the memories stitched in the purple, dance until the wine is
over!
Through
the wine glass they see
Through
the wine glass they hear
The
puppet dancing to the minors covered in the Wine
Bury
the truth, bury the memories drenched in the wine!
A crack
in the glass shouts the child in the audience
For the
puppet's heart is loaded with poems,
Poems
that cant be tied to a chord,
Poems
with wings unseen by the puppeteer and the audience
Fly
away from the glass of wine to somewhere pure and white
