The Amazing Tony

Part-time magician
with a condition:
inflated head and
a bad case of
sleight of hand.
Took a gig
to pay his rent.
Pulled a rabbit
and wound up when?
And wound up when?
And wound up when?
And wound up when?

Part-time magician
with a condition:
misplaced in time,
low on tissues
for his wet eyes.
Took a chance
to return home
sawed a woman in half
and wound up when?
And wound up when?
And wound up when?
And wound up when?

Full-time jester
with a temper.
Lost his head
and his pride
for jokes he said.
Approached the king
"I entertain!" He said.
Employed for a day
and wound up dead.


Misplaced in time himself,
Adam.

Dream Job #4

"Pick a card, any card!"

That's right, gang. I want to be a magician. Could you imagine getting so good at sleight of hand, that you could pick pockets, or steal someones watch while looking them in the eyes? That seems so cool to me. I'm really more interested in card magic. I just love the idea of making cards disappear, and reappear in front of large crowds. I especially love when magician's throw playing cards Gambit style also.

But sadly to do any of the above you have to train for hours upon hours each and every day. I am not willing to do that. I tried and got bored after a bit. It's fun to "practice" while I'm on the phone with someone, but I'd rather use my free time writing or reading. But, do know that on occasion I dabble with the "dark arts" to see my nephews smile in delight, as the Amazing Uncle Adam makes the penny reappear under his left hand.
