My Magic Moment.... Poem by RIC BASTASA

My Magic Moment....



i ask you
to clap for me,

i am the
magician
and i have
a wand

history wise
i have turned a
toad into
a king.

a pumpkin into
a house and a mouse
into a horse,

you are not
impressed i know

but i ask you
to clap for me

and indeed you
oblige with
one clap with one
hand

well, it is zen
you brag
the Buddhist you

you want to
outwit me
the magician and
i believe you


and so on top of
my career
and behind this
lament that i keep
(for you never
love me anyway)

i perform my last
magic

which i know will
of course not
impress you at all

at any rate, this is
the magic,
i disappear
completely from you

and you shall never
find me again.
