The Man Behind the Curtain

I have seen the man behind the curtain I have looked into his hollow eyes I have seen the man behind the curtain I trembled when I heard his cries I have seen the man behind the curtain I have seen my own demise I have seen the man behind the curtain My journey here was most unwise Dorothy sought out the man behind the curtain For me he was an unwelcome surprise I have seen the man behind the curtain I bought in to his clever lies I have seen the man behind the curtain It is not chicken, but children he fries I have seen the man behind the curtain I asked a priest if he could exercise I have seen the man behind the curtain There is no redemption I surmise I have seen the man behind the curtain Now all I ever see are flies I have seen the man behind the curtain Mortality and time are my only allies Epitaph, my ebook: http://www.amazon.com/Epitaph-ebook/dp/B00CCFQ9XS/ref=pd_rhf_gw_p_t_2_TBDR
