Year of Seven Puppets
Cannonball Statman

You'll meet strange people in a test tube.

Girls in a living room laugh at a television

boys scream screamy things at their socks

like joy joy joy and riding a donkey;

they went to find a place to sleep

and woke up inside what seemed like a mansion

a regular resting place for those who feel the need to sit

and wait as the rain sets.

The windows bled out into a space into green fields

spanning beyond the comprehension of man

the steps in a life that echo for eternity

forgetting this they slept in king-sized white beds

bags unpacked

all the things they'd taken with them down the road

taken out and placed in place.

They were advised not to stay long in this mansion

but to savor the time while they are there

and dream of most astonishing things

because when you leave part of you stays behind;

told to dream of most astonishing things

like wild olympian yellow jacket stings

on hands of marzipan caramel rings

because when you leave part of you stays behind

IN THIS MANSION!

I saw seven gods in my dream last night

I saw you and seven friends in a streetfight

I saw seven puppets on fourth street

they said I won't last long in the shadow

of your shadow.

It's raining

children play in the garden outside;

do they know where they are?

asked a voice from the inside.

NO! replied the mansion,

they're just there,

and so are you

but we'll all figure out

where we are

one day.
