• My puppet, dear,

    puppet true,

    raise your arm,

    do as I do.

    Through your fragile psyche,

    I do my best harm,

    with the words

    “I

    love

    you”

    with my insatiable charm.

    Do as I command.

    Take my hand.

    My puppet, dear,

    I’ll help you stand.

    No need for thought.

    No need to feel.

    There’s nothing you don’t have

    that I will not steal.

    Puppet, puppet,

    I need you

    to do the things,

    I can not do.

    To feel in ways

    I never could.

    To feel the feelings,

    I know I should.
