there is no
magic
in the world
it is but an
illusion
a
smokescreen
putting your hand
in a hat
and finding
nothing
it is a
sawn in half
magic carpet
that has fell
from grace
into
a sealed trunk
immersed in water
a quarter
not found
behind your ear
a flower bouquet
with faded
and lost
petals
head hung
in shame
