Society is a puppeteer
It plays everyone
Controls what they do and say
I see it happen everyday
People follow one person
Trying to be "in"
What they don't know
Is that person is just society's custom puppet
Made from the fabric that is declared "normal"
They attach strings to themselves
Become just another marinet
Adding to the puppet show of life
I sit back and watch
Sometimes encouraging
Sometimes criticizing
The only fee to watch is to be deemed wierd
Abnormal,strange
A small price to pay for the freedom
To leave the show at one's on will
And not have to play along

to leave the show at one's own will
those are your few typos. This is very well written, and I totally agree with your viewpoint. Thank you for entering the contest. whisper -
This is a very true write and it's quite sad. The emotion in this is very evident. I liked the ending to this. Let me know what you'd like to be in my family though, please. Thank you for entering and good luck. ~
