Hey you, yeah you, the man behind the Curtain.
I know my scripture; I have a degree in Bible and I am certain
The lion is supposed to lie down with the lamb,
But recently my world has changed and I will be damn
If you change the script mid-stream
Without our consult I'll puff like Popo I'll billow more than steam.
I will rain down hellfire if you dare rewrite the script, it is not fair!
Go ahead and merge two worlds nearly the same. I declare
We will not travel into this new world without explanation and justice.
Come from behind; your drape to edify a seeming injustice.
Behold, the Wizard royally robed and declares, "You think I did this?
It is you who ripped the quantum fabric releasing multiple realms you dismiss.
You say, 'what harm is come for this juncture in our labs?' You played with fire.
Now, you arise and grumble about your demise. Continue to walk a taut wire
High above the earth while life carries on as you teeter,
Because you remember what was and is no more. Ask your reader
Whose caused this rip in dimensionality, was it me or you? My Kingdom
Is not preordained; I gave you freedom, you have to develop wisdom.
Accept the similarities and ignore the differences for it is your home
Until you open another door and continue your roam."
A/N: Isaiah 11: 6 KJV "The wolf also shall dwell with the lamb, and the leopard shall lie down with the kid; and the calf and the young lion and the fatling together; and a little child shall lead them."
