The master of puppets

Hear before you lie,
the puppet’s song and command its
strings with your hands.

When you rest, hand it
over to the birds and let it fly.

Now when you are back,
the master of the puppets,
they shall rise, above you,
against you
to the tryst of freedom, in
the vintage of lasting
autonomy.

the tryst of freedom...nice turn of a phrase that...who pulls the strings of the string pullers...

You always blow my mind with your perspective on things. This is way cool--the first line is a great play on words, and the whole concept is twisty and layered. Great 55, Monika.

So complex for my tiny little monkey brain. The infinite string pulling. Beyond my comprehension.
