Puppet Strings

Hello! No strings? Well you seem to be new. Let me show you around. 

It is a busy street, so you better keep up okay?

Over there, in the workshop by that tall building, that's where all the strings are made, you see, just like the ones on my arms and legs. 

What exactly are the strings you ask?

Well, they're on every person around here. They teach us submission and obedience. The strings go from here all the way up to the sky. 

Oh look, those are my friends, they're great though they don't really say much, the strings don't really let them. 

Anyway come on, come on. Do you see those people who are tied up? They tried to cut their strings. You never cut your strings. 

Cutting your strings gives you freedom, we're not allowed to have that. 

Freedom is good you say? Haha rubbish, who put that silly thought in your head, of course not. 

Moving on, that grey building you see over there, yes that's my house, would you like to come in?

No? Okay. Let's have tea in that tea shop there. I love their tea.

So do you have any questions? 

Oh, who controls the strings you ask?
The man in the sky of course.
