~ Puppet Psychosis

 

 

Inscrutable cans

Hidden in those thoughts

A dream alive

An illusion of reality

Nor obscured by the mind

The living walk by the

Spirit in full consciousness

Trapped by defects

Tired by thoughts

Together a whole

In the power of the senses

Each uniquely interwoven

To a whole universal touch

The puppets dance schizophrenic

On the canvas of the mind

Each one with its own

Dance, to the last gasp

Wake up, wake up

And realize that you had shared a

Quartered, of your time

At your own waking dream

The title for this one really grabbed my attention! I was looking forward to dive into this one, and I wasn't dissapointed !!! Puppets as inanimated objects, puppets as children toys, puppets as hopeless human beings, going through the routine, having their strings pulled by an unseen presence... "The puppets dance schizophrenic" There is such power and rythym in your words, they scream to be repeated and to be taken far across the land! Your style is quite unique, halfway between reality (the heart) and dreamland (the imagination). "At your own waking dream" indeed... Another fascinating read, thank you for sharing!

Oh JP now thank you for this insights... And compliment, this was a real write, I observed the behavior of someone near to me for over a year... Your take brings me on new ideas already :) thankies

This is so thought provoking, leaving me wonder who we are to say what others see isnt really there, in some other dimension or consciousness. Maybe they have tapped or been trapped into a piece of the mind we cannot visit or understand. The last line is such a beautiful way of putting into words, a feeling we cannot feel.

Thank you Lorry :)

"Trapped by defects
Tired by thoughts"

Lines that I, and possibly everyone, can relate to. Just beautiful. I think this is maybe the singualr poem I've read of yours that doesn't necessarily end happily.

Now I'm curious what you've been reading.... ;) this is my second one, on explaining psychosis. The rest is balanced utterly positive, or negative, as I rarely write in the middle, while I'm actually am, and dwell.... I know I'm weird. xoxo

Weird is creative. Dwelling can be good and bad, I wish you and your friend peace.

Thank you very much, dear poet/writer/poetess, it's not my friend, it's an older relative person, but thanks so much dear one! xo

your heart is good and you are learned on the subject...ty for including the comments.. .it truly is a world of strangeness..

Thank you.... dear friend, The word is only strange "that strange for those who did not dared to take it, embrace it, get it to the core" I guess :) then the word philosophical gets birth.... denial, unknowledge, "the amazing populair huh? factor" strainge for the outsider.... much warm greetings your way :) ( SORRY I HAD SOME errors, so I rewrote my answer ;) wink wink)

Very deep and powerful write. Hard to read something that a person goes through, but you made the reader have an idea of what it's like to have this disease.

Thanks a lot dear poetess, yes... it is such a taboo on the world, and outside, while we are all human, and struggle sometimes. I want to give an idea, how it is, and how I talk with them. (in their world) I am no runnaway-er for this, and I wanted to break open the angst to it. While that is not necessary at all, they are still with us, only dreaming in their imagination. Thanks again. x

Very welcome!

Very cool. My wife is sitting beside me watching tv, she leaned over and read and said she liked it a lot and she doesn't like many poems I have her read, haha.

Wow that's pretty amazing, :) Say hi to your wife, and hope you both have a wonderful eve... Thanks Revery for your words, and support, always,

Mind twisting, and creative. There are times I have been unable to account for whole hours at a time, lost in the crevices and recesses of my thoughts. Of my mind. It is very powerful inside of there. So you help us to imagine what it must be like to be truly lost, inside of our minds. Thank you for sharing this one, Eli.

Thank you Diego, I've studied a lot of Psychology, and in my private life, I help a lot of people, facing them with the most interesting things, and sufferings, brought me to write this one, total emphatized in their minds of the moment, I could communicate with them. It is very interesting how each other psychosis works, some have it harder than others, It was a glimpse of one talk I had with one... in a quarter/ 15 min, then another personality came over. And the radio spoke lyrics to her.... interesting. Thank you so much dear.
