(I’m letting you)
You’ve got me on a string
I’m dancing and you know it
To whatever song you sing

You’re twisting it
(I’m bending woo)
You’re making me insane
I’m wobbling and you see it
It’s nothing but a game

You’re screaming now
(I’m yelling too)
You’ve got a thing to learn
I’m laughing and you missed it
Dare it then to burn

Looks like it takes a lot to make you angry, but we can all only take so much!

Bloody Brilliant! I think that this is one of the best, in this topic, that I've read so far. So emotional and is, as always, written to perfection.

Take Care

I'd say up until today I couldn't even imagine you angry but you certainly captured it in this one.

"Dare it then to burn"

I love that closing line! ! ! !

Thanks,

Timber

Some games are fun. This one is not. I feel an intense sense of anger and defiance eminating from the page. I would characterise this poem as a verbal purcupine. Beware!
