The Puppet Master
Karim Gamil
We look to you
In search of our hopes
And call your name
In reminiscence of your gaze
Those who witness
The hand of the puppet master
Remain in silence deterred
And those who speak
The words of her message
Are humbled by revelation
Recite to us
The words of your desires
O puppet master
You mover of strings
Reveal to us
The workings of your craft
And disclose the memories
of your timeless threads
Speak to us
In the language of your fates
That govern the
Movements of the wind
O puppet master
You mover of strings
Why did you deny us
the breath of life?
O puppet master
You bearer of rings
Why did you grant us
the gift of presence?
I look to you
My fellow puppet
And wonder
If your heart is wooden like mine
I look to you
You puppet master
And by your hands
We become divine
