Dear Mr. Oz (The Great and Terrible)

dear mr. oz
behind the curtain
tugging the strings of

your countrymen:


we have waited so long

in this hall of wishes
for life to start-

and all the green wands

are broken-

for the token of a heart,

a mind that ticks,
a night without fear
or a single ride home:

we went through hell.

don't pass the pie-crust promises, please-

not even emerald pie
