Which One Is The Dummy Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

A puppet manipulated by strings,
Is obvious and can be forgiven.
For such outrageous comments heard.
To then think of them as funny.
However,
A ventriloquist blatantly using a dummy...
To make outrageous statements.
More obnoxious as time goes on.
It then becomes more noticed,
When upon it focused.
That dummy is using the ventriloquist,
As a prop to purposely insult those listening.
To have it perceived,
That ventriloquist is using the dummy...
As a tool to use to fool the people.
But it is the dummy that is the one,
Getting paid to appear as if stupid.
And dumb enough to manipulate,
Those listening to believe words heard.
