marionette

the void emptiness

of a blank screen

the lost feeling

nothing is as it seems

words hang

dangle like a marionette

with no one in control

strings in a twist

wrapped around the other

waiting for someone to take hold

the inspiration

 a sudden lightening flash

waves beating on shore

a lyrical splash

words flow

the strings untangle

the marionette is now free

a new dance

a new song

a new choreography
