Straw Man Intro

by Taelor Gray

on The Straw Man (2013)

Meet your straw man!
He was born the same day you were
He looks like you, has the same name, and lives in your house
But you never knew he existed
You will have even paid his parking tickets or taxes
The worst part?
He's been dead from day one
From every birth certificate, a legal personality or legal fiction
Is created with the same name
To confuse little old you into thinking it's you
So there's a human you, and a paper you
Or, as it's commonly know, a straw man
