The second of my collections of poems written for "Express It In Eight."

Punch and Judy Show

Oh, don’t point your finger -
I’m really not to blame,
and, if doubts should linger,
just look beyond the game.

A puppet show’s the truth,
and see who pulls the strings -
the man behind the booth,
he causes all these things.
