The Illusionist in the Black Dress
She lets the paper doves fly,
Moving her hands in such a way
She easily conceals her tricks.
You watch in awe as the
Doves fly over your head and
Disappear as if they were
Never there.
"Who is she?" Whispers
Catch on bits of people's minds,
Flitting about like hummingbirds
In flight.
But she is no one.
The illusion is she,
concealing her life
with one stroke of her hand.
