Spoke louder in silence
than most did with words
Told stories without music
Operas
without even a single bell
Faces in the dark
expressed all emotions
yet he
was never seen
He pulled a thousand men
out of his artist's box
and wore them for us
swearing it wasn't magic
The first Master Of Disguise
in his short journey
created a long path
for others to follow
and then continue onward
into the deafening sound
