Puppet

I am no damn puppet,
not a marionette,
to be pulled by the strings
of the creepy guy,
the puppetmaster.

He cannot tell me
what clothes to wear,
what things to say,
how to act...

I am no puppet.

Excellent! this deserves a ' Like '.. you're right, guys won't tell us how to look, dress, or act. we're free to be ourselves, if they don't like it, they can just sit on it :)

Wow, very powerful here!
I can definitely feel the emotion here; your anger and frustration come clear.
My only suggestion would be (and this is only a suggestion, when it comes to poetry, who makes the rules?), if it were me, I might add some more in the second verse, or maybe just drop the space between the second verse and the last line. Good job, though. Very powerful.
