Puppet

Puppet

A Poem by Alice Walker

Pleasing the crowds with false smiles and emotions.
U
seless unless my cruel puppeteer pulls upon my strings.
Playing the crowds as fools, never forgetting I'm being played too.
Praying that one day someone will have mercy as my new puppeteer.
Eternally wishing and hoping for a chance at a true life, not a false act.
Trusting in the future and knowing that my chance to live is soon to come.
