Modern Magic
Magic is an instance of
smokeandfire,
thunderandrain.
It is a glimpse of
stolenkisses
and
sparklingeyes,
shining through an
unforgivingnight.
Magic is a moment of
passionandfury,
an ardent expression of
unbelievablepain.
It is underratedandoverrated
and incandescently displayed
before a blindaudience
and an insensitiveworld.
Modern magic exists.
Not in stories of
princesandprincesses
and
heroesandvillains
but in the
beautifullynoticed
and
universallyfelt.
