(i the magician)

(i  the magician)

i walk  along  the waterfront.                                       half       moon

shining  over  my  left  shoulder.                                               chilly.

i make a fire.   &  in the flames.                                                  i  see

a  man  i  know  from  dreams.                         he  speaks   in  runes.

he  climbs  mountains.                                     he  carries  the  ocean

in  his  eyes.                                                  a  tornado  in  his  hands. 

graceful.    most  masterful.                                    all he commands. 

seeing  him.                                                  i am filled with emotion.

remembering.                                                          i want it all again.

spinning  in  that  golden  web.                                                  erotic

love.  all  my  senses  reeling.                                                hypnotic.

remembering.                                                    sad that it had to end. 

i  put  out  the  fire.                                                  visions  are  gone.

i’ll  never  forget.                                                   that  magical  song.
