Welcome to Fandango’s One-Word Challenge (aka, FOWC). I will be posting each day’s word just after midnight Pacific Time (U.S.).
Today’s word is “marionette.”
Write a post using that word. It can be prose, poetry, fiction, non-fiction. It can be any length. It can be just a picture or a drawing if you want. No holds barred, so to speak.
I have taken up the challenge today and written a dark hollween type poem for this prompt. Then I chose some music to go with it and they are rather dark. So here is a dark prompt!.
Marionette
Held
By strings
I dangle
My every move
By your desire
No free will for me now
Though I spin and pirouette
My spirit is no longer mine
I must dance to your will for all time
You’re my master, I your marionette
Cut
These strings
And I will
Fall . I sold my
Soul to the devil
You demon, you tricked me
Now , trapped I cannot escape
You do as you please with my life.
I have found a knife my solution
My life’s blood comforts me as I escape.
