Sevenling (trickery fascinates me)
Trickery fascinates me:
The pea that is lost under the walnut shell,
The magician’s assistant who enters the cage and vanishes,
An assassin who skillfully uses the shadows.
My father has a daily routine, has had this routine since retirement:
Sleep in a darkened room during the day while my mother moves through
the rest of the house,
Eat dinner while watching the news, ask for the salt during commercials,
Immediately hand the phone to my mother if I call.
There are many ways to disappear.
