pUpPeT - DiARy oF a MaDMaN 
Seasons in the abyss





You think I'm stupid don't you

I can see it in your blood filled eyes

But you're quiet now aren't you puppet.

With no tongue in your head


It's hard to vocalize.



Not that I mind

If I'm being honest.



'Honest'

Now there's a term


I revealed your secrets and your lies,

When I opened you up

Like rusty can of worms.



So pretty you are ..so pretty



My mother was pretty too

Well, she was until I 'popped' out her eyes.

You should have heard her screams

They reminded me of my own as a child.



Look at the mess you're making puppet

Not to worry though hey, I'll soon get it cleared away.

Your skin is so soft, a little clammy, but you're still warm

Don't look at me like that, bad, bad, puppet



Here, let me turn your head the other way.



So pretty



So pretty



Your hair reminds me of my little sisters.

Those blonde bouncy curls, she had too.

Until I set her head ablaze, that mesmerizing flame.

It was so funny, she was covered in blisters.



But your voice, your stinking, dirty voice

Just like my mothers, sick, twisted tongue.

That's why I had to remove yours puppet

You left me without a choice.






I've built a room, down in the cellar.

Where you and me can be together

Nobody has to know, only you and me

Would you like that puppet, would you



Do you love me?




To be continued :

Wow. Much darker than the first addition, and just as gripping. This one actually gave me goosebumps. The idea of him, loving her, but destroying her, it's a wonderful love/hate thing, and the complex with the mother... and the revealing of what he did to his family... wow he is very definitely crazy... I am intrigued!!! More please!!!

Chilling
But very good, I like where you've gone with this collection. Each part is perfect in it's perspective, description and series of events. The main character is brilliantly carnal and disillusioned while the imagery paints a perfect portrayal of the scene. I really look forward to reading the rest.

Don't ever come to my
door. Bewitching bone crunking back visions you pain. Darkest demon great imagery veiled in torture. Alive yet dead. Gruesome illusions dance in the head. Disgust and dismay enter the play. You can feel pain as he talks to himself. Rationalizing his sick deeds and words in his world. Wicked destruction of human hearts, souls and bodies. Queries readers to read behind doors. Screams you can hear as ghosts gather round. Warning signals bright lights hunt for you.

Great provoking write my friend. You might add "a" after like? "Like rusty can of worms." Just a thought.

Horrific!
Sounds like a serial killer?? Very disturbing but clever piece. Makes me think the child was abused by the mother and in return became disturbed? Is the puppet his current vicitm? If so nice symbolism there. Gave me chills. I studied serial killers for my Masters Degree in Criminal Justice and you nailed the feeling perfectly!

Hahahaha, this is pure dark madness. I really like how far you've went with this one. Adding loneliness and the unforgettable Cellar line. A little cliche, but it does the story justice. I like what you've crafted here. Don't be afraid to experiment. Otherwise I might turn your head the other way. LOL

Cold Killer Personality
Only one suggestion for this piece really, that being the last line. Your killer tends to ask his questions without looking for an answer.

"Do you love me" feels he is seeking one.

"Don't you love being with me." Keeps truer to the tone of his personality that I've derived from this so far.

The structure of this has become more erratic, but the words, your story, haven't lost their strength or "creepiness". Though I wonder how you will continue to make a man playing with a dead woman entertaining, I have no doubt you will accomplish this.

Oh, last suggestion. Sense of smell isn't included. Smell of blood, sweet, environmental location. That would make the piece more real to me. I get faint glimpse through your description but its not quite driving home. Best Wishes. ~Shea

I think I liked the first one better, only because it was shorter, this one stretched out a little too much for Me, I think you could have said alot in just the first few stanza's.
But... don't take My opinion as a bad review because I did have a favourite stanza
"My mother was pretty too
Well, she was until I 'popped' out her eyes.
You should have heard her screams
They reminded me of my own as a child. "
This speaks volumes, I think in this one stanza you captured the character totally, for Madness often reflects on things gone past... and I can see in these 4 lines the depravity of this person's soul.. it really spoke to Me this stanza.
I did enjoy this piece it was good.
*now waits for the next... .. .*
Be well

Hi M my friend...Thank you for your kind comments buddy...I know what you mean with the stretch of detailing...as you know my pieces are usaully short impact image stuff....But this is a new approach for me - this style of writing...so for me it's about finding the balance...I hope you the following editions will paint a more vivid picture in less time and space lol....Thanks again my friend...I'm glad you enjoyed the second edition....The recordings (the tape) ...has now been released which paint the body of his youth and where this state of mind was born...I hope you enjoy it

Whoa
This is definitely a dark, chilling piece.
I love when you said "When I opened you up Like (a) rusty can of worms." What a visual! So wonderfully morbid...
Your repetition of "so pretty" was what really freaked me out...
Great job. This is an excellent write.

Still Enthralled
I LOVE where you're going with this. many years of psych intensive participation... some voluntary... some not so voluntary, make this all so familiar a territory for me. You are truly doing well to embrace the workings of the oedepic dellusional persona. I'm intrigued to no end, and that is something that doesn't come easy.

On this installment I did see a few places that might be worthy of attention. once again with "sisters hair" there was no apostrophe. seems as though it should read "Little Sister's".

I absolutely love the line structure, and the spacing. I like the layout. It almost forces inflection, which most poems don't when reading, unless you hear the original artist read first. As much as the aesthetics of the verse layout appeal to me, I had trouble as a reader follwing the stanza shift between 'Honest' and the close of the "rusty can of worms". (which by the way was by far my favorite line). I think I got the right delivery, but I had to read over it 3 times to follow the morbidity of the tone.

I do like the exchange of "no tongue in your head" and "hard to vocalize". It leaves the reader to decide for themself whether those statements blend as one, or if they are stand alone, which to my CG family usually means they are both... I'm a sucker for run on and/or blended word play.

all in all, this is moving along quite well. keep it coming!

The Rawness
Ok, this is pure vileness coming out in free verse and I love it!

"Look at the mess you're making puppet
Not to worry though hey, I'll soon get it cleared away."

Words of a methodological calculated killer to the core. This piece screams rage, and poor little puppet, how he will understand such things.

Full marks for this…a definite Michael Appreciated Piece!!

Wow amazing! I love how it sounds as if he's almost talking to himself, like he knows she can't hear but he continues to talk. Also the reapeating of words are creepily childlike... "so pretty so pretty.." A true madman! The connections to his past are also striking, it really draws you into the story.. can't wait for the others!

Wow friend. I thought I had to wait a little longer but not …. Where do I start, like rusty can of worms.. love it. The sickening twisted mind of this mad man, it made me laugh because it so dark that I wonder where your mind went LOL... Brilliant I can see that you really into this story and that more will defiantly come. It was not too bloody for me but it was scary and creepy which is great oh that mad man's mind and as he described “puppet” And then "do you love me" very smart end. Again great job.
