Prestidigitation
Hand gestures in the dark
Appearing in a flash of light
an audience, is mesmerized
draws in and holds
its breath at fire-wheels from out-of-sight
Hand gestures in the dark
sky limbs unfold
A day un-spools from black to white
The audience is mesmerized
Laurel offered, olives, gold
An unseen icon vested with great might
Hand gestures in the dark
a figure rises from a living mould
New visions set out new delights
The audience is mesmerized
Our stories, who knows why they’re told?
Mere fascinators falling through a thought of night
Hand gestures in the dark
The audience still mesmerized
