Human puppet

Human puppet

A Poem by SimplyDisastrous

Strings descended from my arms and legs

My mouth, a masterpiece of woodwork rounded around a silent scream

The corners of your lips curl up as you sew strings in and out of my skin

I bleed, creating a puddle of crimson on the ground, but I can’t make a sound

I can’t disappoint you, for I am your personal entertainment and you are my

Master and I, your human slave.

Very nice with the descriptions. The human marionette concept obviously has been done before, but I like the way you portray it giving the "puppet" no will of its own nor responsibility for its actions giving over (unwillingly it seems) to the Master completely. Don't know if you really need to capitalize "human" in that last sentence unless you had a specific reason to do so. Over all, I give it two hooves up. ;)

You convey your emotions well in this piece. In the future, I'd recommend adding some more imagery to make even more vivid and powerful

I think you did great. It describes, to me, a relationship between someone who thinks they can control their significant other. Great job. [:

Such powerful emotions are in this. It's terrible to feel so powerless. The h in human doesn't need to be capitalized. The descriptions are fantastic.

Hey. I used to be on here alot when I was 15. Now, not so much. I'm 18 now and I'm not nearly as depressing as I used to be, but still depressing enough. Message me and feel free to read my old poems... more..
