there's a definite skill in tugging strings
marionette controllers understand these things
cords of manipulation pulled left and right
to keep each puppet working for his might
a deftness of tasking beyond compare
this capability he'll show with much dare
an accent always being on the wire's desire
as to how he'd like his wooden figures to fire
we marvel at the maestro's astute vigour
in employing his expert's toggling rigour
commanding all the dolls by ace orchestration
he's a supreme professional of the vocation
