A New Opportunity
Mr. Arthur Hamilton was presented with an odd proposition.
He received a note from a stranger at a train station.
A phone call came from a “deceased” friend the night before.
The next night, that same person called Mr. Hamilton once more.
The voice was speaking with some strange familiarity.
Arthur became convinced the voice was from his old friend Charlie.
The friend told Hamilton of his second opportunity.
Charlie told Arthur to go to the note’s address.
There, Mr. Hamilton’s life would receive a redress.
This secret company was presenting an offer quite strange.
An entirely new life was something they would arrange.
Here was a clandestine organization conducting a bizarre game.
Antiochus Wilson would be Mr. Hamilton’s new name.
He would have a stronger and younger body,
along with an entirely new identity.
Here was Arthur Hamilton’s second life opportunity.
Wonder what will happen? Just watch the movie.
based on the 1966 film "Seconds"
