she is a possessed doll
flailing, trembling about the stage
from one end to another she is swiftly dragged
almost falling off the front edge
into the audience
the puppet looks desperately above at the master
trusting him, frightened at the possibility
that his desire is the fall
she pulls against the tug of the strings
trying to cling to the floor boards
which do not provide a foot hold
at any moment she will implode
