"The Great Houdini" Written By Flor De Maria

-My dearest Houdini-

So brilliantly minded are you

Vanishing in thin air as though you and it were one.

When I wish to see you, I simply close my eyes.

For it is there I know that I will find you.

You once told me, you were a man of many faces.

I guess, I didn't read between the lines.

I was always anticipating your next moves

always anticipating your next words

always anticipating you... but now I feel I fear you.

Such a gifted artist are you with such an exciting act

I don't believe it's one that's meant to be understood..

I sat in the front row applauding your every move,

cheering you on with such excitement. Did you ever see me?

I find myself standing in the back now, fading into the crowd..

But before I go, let me not forget to mention you vanished with my heart.

I didn't realize it was apart of the act. Then again..

I didn't realize I'd willingly give it away to The Great Houdini..
