abracadabra

he will draw you in


catch your attention


with a secret word and slight of hand


you are watching intently


following his every move


each one greater than the next


hes surrounds you in excitement


he will fill you with wonder and delight


he makes something disappear


he makes sure that youre watching


drawing you in for his finale


but you arent really watching


not the way you think


he shows you all the angles


but you dont want to see what hes really doing


you dont want to know how its done


thats what makes magic so mysterious


will it stay gone


will he bring it back


you want to see something shocking


something you have never seen before


you wait on the edge of your seat


abracadabra

Author notes

Now you're looking for the secret... but you won't find it because you're not really looking.
You don't really want to know the secret... You want to be fooled

    Haha good write. I like the illusions that magicians create with their slight of hand, and your right you really never want to know how its done cause it spoils the mystery. Thanks for sharing and keep writing.

    This is REALLY different from most of your other stuff. I love the way you tell 3 stories in one.
