Augment

As they Well up from inside
Every glistening drop a cherished memory
Lapping on a distnt shore.
A thousand thousand dark haired, blue eyed replacements
March single file off a rugged clifftop.
All flawed.
High above the shrieking gulls
The original, the perfection
Jerks my puppet strings
Leaves me face down on a narrow bed,
Cold.
Cold now my warmth is gone,
Dribbling pleas against a pillow
As my throat is cut and a harsh rash
Seeps over my skin for your pleasure.
Now the shackles bite as I am flung down
Down to where even the vultures can't pick my sobbing bones.
For the chains stretch up, up to the clouds
Where my master tries to pry them from his grasp.
I am a nuisence.
A nothing who obstructs him.
My good times are dead as the verse
He wrote for me.
Choke me on you,
Let me die a death I am suited to.

Please tell me what you think

    the actual poem is very good, conveying a sense of frustration, despair, hopelessness and ultimately a conflict between the wish to be accepted by the "puppet master" and a wish t end it all by dieing,
    However, it is xmas time, cheer up, and have a happy new year
