The illusionist vanishes from sight
Appearing over stage
Under moonlight
Transforms a flower into mist
And rematerializes its petals
Into a hardened fist
The dreamer hungers for peace
Searches the world over
For a new landlord and lease
Combats the deep offerings of night
Foraging hope’s craving
For the lure of universal light
The magician
Levitates midair
Over the crowd who wonder and stare
Some ask, “Is it trick or is it real?”
The reality of the matter
Is the magic you feel
