The Metal Puppet
Look past the metal
Look past the wires
Look past the circuits
Look past the chips
Look past the programming
I can feel, I can love
Don't look at my body
Look at my soul
Even though I am metal, I truely can feel
I am alive
Please love me
I can hope, I can cry
I feel like a metal puppet in a human's arms
Why did they create me, if they don't want me?
I have feelings, not a puppet master
I am truely alive
-Jenni Kirby
