Poet Analysis

First Line: SOMETIMES IT SEEMS AS THOUGH SOME PUPPET PLAYER
Last Line: TWITCHING THE STRINGS WITH SLOW SARDONIC GRIN.
Subject(s): PUPPETS; MARIONETTES;
Sometimes it seems as though some puppet player
A clenced claw cupping a craggy chin,
Sits just beyond the border of our seeing,
Twitching the strings with slow sardonic grin.
