No one's looking out for me.
Even the nice one changed his tune.
I'm not your yo-yo
innocent children play with yo-yos
innocently
up and down
round and round
at your command.
Yeah I feel like one,
but I'm not.
A yo-yos innocent;
your deranged,
looking for every flaw,
until I am so knotted up
it's no fun to be me anymore.
You never gave me opportunity
training
or responsibility
for anything & now I'm being blamed.
Did I like it, sitting around feeling usless?
No I went along with it in good faith,
trusting you
and I asked am I doing everything right,
even though I had nothing to do
and you smiled sweetly yes,
was that a little hallow? it seemed so,
but I trusted.
First it was my mistakes,
now other things,
building a case,
the time I take to do things,
what I do at all.
am I doing everything right, and you
smiled yes, and I believed.
The new deity will never see what was missing
opportunity
training
responsibility.

"How was your day dear"
Terrible,
I think
but I asked
am I doing everything right
and she said yes.
They wouldn't steer me wrong would they?
They just don't trust me yet.
I'm gonna give them a chance,
thy'll start piling on me the responsibilities.
I'm still waiting.
The status game of
separation between me and you
never we
always "you are doing this for us".
I'm left mute.
I couldn't respond if I wanted to.
I'm not gonna get a fair impartial hearing.
I'm sunk.
Me against the world.
I feel like a yo-yo;
but it's more insidious than that.
I'm a yo-yo in the hands of malicious people.
your yo-yo.

This makes me think much of that unlove we seem to cling to - how the change is something we simply swallow to be what we are wanted to be - to be shaped into the proper model. Thank you for your entry!

Wow duanna. I loved it. It had so much meaning to me. I know this feeling. Its true people can make you feel like a yo-yo. They will smile in your face and let you make a mistake.I feel as if sometime humanity think of badness all time. But I know there is always hope for us.Each time you do sometihing good they want o repay it with bad. Albert einstein laws of relativity.He made it for the good of humanity. He wanted create something for cancer and the curing of dieases etc.But the world wanted to turn it into a bomb. This was even before world world 2. It was actually many years before. But anyway He never lost hope as to what it could become for good. We cant lose hope. Its hard in this world. Because sometime our own enemy can live with us.We fight at work and at home.Or wherever we fight.but we have to hold on. This write was brillant and keep writing.Your friend Joe.

what an amazing analysis- this is so true and I never thought of it this way before. It is crazy, but so true and sad it happens that way.
