Edward Ibeh
Look Closely
Black silk top hat
Upon greasy hair sat
White gloved, quick hands
Graceful gestures, gestures grand
Speaks nonsense but mostly,
"Watch me now, look closely!"
Sly smile, glint in eye
"You sucker", they imply
Swift movements over here
Draw my eyes, my gaze steer
Magic moving fast and ghostly
He continues to croon, "look closely"
The ears hear but not the eyes
"Look closely", magic lies.
